Wingnut:
I had the same problems as you with my starter and solenoid;
Solenoid had a broken spade connector from the ignition. Symptom was nothing happening when the key was turned. Solution was to fit a new solenoid. Mine only cost a fiver brand new.
Starter motor needed regreasing or cleaning. Symptom was whirring noise when key turned but no engine starting. I should fit a new one, but if it sticks (not very often) I just tap the starter with a club hammer through the gap next to the wheel. This works for now.
You may need to check your battery as well. If its old it may not be holding enough charge. Mine gave up when it got down to 3v across the terminals. The lights still work and don't dim when you look at them, but there's not enough juice to work the starter.
