Advice needed urgently......
Got my car booked in for an MOT on tuesday and my car has decided to dieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee 
the problem started apparently last weekend and i wasn't informed, as i have not had the chance to use it all week until this weekend.
Problem......
fuel cuts out just after the lights and dashboard needles on the rev/speedo etc stick........sometimes they didn't even come on and the car would still drive.........having a great drive round this weekend and car just died 7 times whilst driving........now its dead.
any advice would be appreciated..........

Knowlsey will sort it for you I'm sure. Probably just a sensor or something...I hope.
You KNOW it was a good decision to keep the car though.... don't you...?
