	Auto or manual? Starter turning? Ignition powering up?

	Do you hear a clicking or anything like that? I know some Rovers need you to de-immobilise the car a la various CAT 1 alarms like Clifford and Cobra before you move off which is done with the fob, but I would rule that out if you drive the car often .

	That sounds like it should be a nice simple easy fix then.
