Hi. There is a good possibility that the timing belt has broken and is causing the engine to be out of time. The engine you have is an interference engine this means the clearance between valves and piston are very close and when the timing belt breaks it causes the valves to hit piston and bend the valves. When this happens the cylinder head is damaged and the car won’t start. If this the problem the cylinder will need to be replaced or the entire engine will need to be replaced. The spark for the car also could be bad and needs to be inspected. I suggest you have a certified tech from YourMechanic come and diagnosis your no start issue.
