well mine started playing up today!...was on way home down a12 racing a reni 19 16v..(which i whooped!)

and pulled over into my juntcion put foot on clutch then went to pull off and felt like i hit a wall then bang!...out the xzorst!....

might have been due to the extreme lack of fuel and my fuel gauge not working right!.... hasnt done it since i filled up!
