So turns out its not my starter motor 
My fault as i should have checked but in my defence i have been having starter problems for a bit with intermittent turning over that i thought was a starter problem but ive installed the new reconditioned one that give me the same problem only to test and find out its the main power to the starter thats the problem 

Is there a main fuse to the starter before i just run i new cable to it, ive looked  but didn't see one, cheers

[ChrisRLewis]

There are no fuses on the starter motor circuit. Engine earth ok?

If it is I would suspect it's something to do with the circuit from the starter motor to the solenoid.

Ive done a bit more checking and the main battery feed from the  battery is the problem. Power is coming from the battery and into the connection block under the bonnet and into the loom but at the back on the starter side i have nothing.

[ChrisRLewis]

are you referring to the thick electrical cables or the thin cables on the starter solenoid?

[mintex]

Yes, the main thick feed to the starter has no power.
