I had this problem, too. Check the crankshaft position sensor on top of the gearbox, right at the back of the engine. It's not an uncommon problem. You may be able to clean the sensor with WD40, or replace if no improvement. Not too expensive, try Eurocarparts.
Dry the fuse box out with a hair dryer under the bonnet. It gets wet and that's why it won't start straight away. My car was the same till I dried the fuse box with a hair dryer.
