There are a few things that can be causing this. It's pretty common that the battery cable that runs directly to the starter comes loose or gets corroded at the starter end and doesn't allow the starter to get enough energy to turn over. I guess you have a manual so the neutral position switch wouldn't be a problem... It kind of sounds like what my car was doing when the cell died in my battery- turn the key and ALL the idiot lights on the dash flash and there's a crazy clicking sound back there. Maybe you've got a short in the electrical system somewhere that's draining you batteries. Seeing as this one is new (probably not a dead cell yet) can you try jump-starting it?
