    Do you have a main live going to the starter motor? Is the starter motor all wired in correctly?

    so what your saying is , if you put a piece of wire from plus + to starter it starts up the engine , that knocks out the idea of earths as it still would not turn , and also your starter moter is working , you have all your lights on dash , might be as simple as the igition fuse

    Air bags connected? in 206's if the air bag is disconnected the engine will not turn over on the key might be the same in saxos?, i've also done an engine conversion, got the pump to prime, but would only turn over/fire, when i ran a wire from the + to the starter, what i did was run a wire from the small connecter on the starter direct to the ignition wiring, starts fine every time now
