Hmm sounds like the classic fuel relay problem... basically you remove it (its in the engine bay), tap it against the bonnet a few times then plug it back in saved me a few times

So, moral of the story Fad, is keep a spare in the car? For £50 and a major get you home fix from a 'fairly' frequent problem (not quite sure how that should be worded, but what I mean is if they car does break down, there is a high possibility its the relay.)
I know I'd be keeping a spare anyway!
