Renault Scenic failing to start

Car: Renault Scenic
Variant: 1.6 petrol
Model Year: 2002
Categories: Leaks & Noises
My car has had to be jump started for the last two days.
When I turn the key I just get a clicking sound, battery tested and apparently fine(only 18 months old). Once started the car runs great but the minute I stop and turn the engine off it refuses to start again, could do with a quick solution as I'm supposed to be taking the mrs away on Friday for a birthday treat(about a 200 mile trip). Thanks

If it starts with a jump start it would suggest battery but you say you have had it drop tested ? Only other suggestion would be starter motor and or wiring / connector .Could also check earths .

Cheers for that , turned out to be a loose wire on the starter, starting fine now. Panic over
