it makes an attempt first time then just a clicking sound after

with the info given and you saying the starter clicks that would indicate that the battery is not holding charge very well but you say youve had it checked so the only other thing it could be is the starter but i would replace the battery first as its unlikely to be the starter but worth getting a quote for a starter just incase

Sounds like a battery fault to me
