First I'd check to see if you get power to the starter.
Assuming you don't, then you can narrow down the problem to somewhere between the ignition and the starter.
Possible break in a wire although having had a few auto's in the past and have had similar problems, both turned out to be the inhibitor switch on the autobox.
Same thing happened to me when we were in the bus last year. Wouldn't start again after we'd filled up at the service station in Llanymenech (the same garage where Gaz works at funnily enough). Quick fix was to run a wire from the starter and when I needed to start it, just touch the wire against the live terminal on the alternator. Bit of a shit on a VW T25 as the engine is in the back and we were loaded up with camping gear!
When I got her back, just got Rob to by pass the inhibitor switch for me. Only downside is that it is possible then to start it in drive, but it was only supposed to be a temporary fix for her anyway!
