Cool cutting out at idle

my99 impreza turbo - standard UK spec apart from exhaust and panel filter, has now started to cut out at idle, hot or cold, particularly bad if your coming out of hyperspace approaching a roundabout or suchlike, reach a halt, then look like a trainspotter as you stall the thing.
The plugs were changed about 12k miles ago, fitted the proper NGK's.
Air filter is clean. any ideas appreciated, apart from the cutting out the car drives well.
