Does it turn over?

If so does it have an immobiliser? I just wonder if it needs recoding before it will start.

no it does not turn over,it does have a immobiliser+alarm controled by a key on the main alarm box

and it will start with jump leads

thanks for reply

If it starts with jump leads (AND the connection between the clamps and the Battery posts are good) then the Battery is cream crackered.

Don't think because it's new it is impossible as this is statistically one of the most likely times it will fail.

Take it back and ask them to drop test it (term used to describe a very high discharge test).
