Yeah would have been an idea to tell us that 
Might have a few cracked wires, from the fuse box to the cabin loom

Yeah maybe i should have mentioned that,I am ever so sorry, I took off the ECU today, and tidied up all the wires, checked for any that were cracked or frayed couldn't really find any issues. Then reattached it all. I checked the fuel and if it was coming through to the engine by disconnecting the fuel line from the engine ( in the engine bay, the small clip on bit) and the strangest thing happened. Firstly fuel shot through when the ignition was on, then on the second attempt nothing. So I re attached everything. I then took the keys out and locked up, went inside. Came out an hour later sat in the car and i could hear a small whirring sound coming from behind me ( with no keys in the ignition). Assuming this would be the fuel pump engaging, i disconnected the fuel line in the engine bay again, and fuel shot through. Yet when i go to start the car nothing. I always thought if there was an immobiiser in the car it would shut of the fuel?

Have a good check of the wiring around there as the fuel pump is in that general area.

IIRC the mileage would stay the same because it is stored in the speedo cluster... Unless thats just Pre-plexed...

The mileage is stored in the bsi and as yours is plexxed would only increased if the speedo was changed for one with higher mileage then that will overite the bsi.
