After 1 year I'd say it's dead and you need to buy a new battery.

that would cost a fortune wouldnt it?

I can't remember how much a new battery costs, but I think you don't really have an option... car batteries don't take kindly to being discharged for so long.

I also work away a lot and same thing happened to me earlier this year - dead battery. New battery and up and away with no problems. One of my keys didn't work but a long drive with it and succesfully recharged. Battery £110.03 from the dealer.
