Well all automatics have an interlock (inhibit) switch of some kind in the gear selector mechanism which prevents you to start the engine if the gearbox is not in N or P , sounds like you are having a problem with the inhibit switch, probably you either need to adjust the setting of yours or buy a new one.

if you go on the parkers website you will find under the advice forum a section just for people like you with a poorly parisian pram!
