I could be massively wrong.... But to be honest it just doesn't sound the way it normally does when I turn the key.... All I can hear is a loud whirring

What can you see moving under the bonnet when someone else turns the key?  ;) ;) You're looking for the crank pulley to spin as above.  :y :y :y

The crank pulley will still spin even if the cam belt is totally snapped...

Which will prove that the bottom part of the engine is turning .. ie .. the starter is achieving something at least ....... if the bottom half is stationary ....... its nowt to do with cambelts !!

Are you looking at the cam belt or the auxiliary belt? If its the belt you can see without removing anything, its the auxiliary belt.
