Default Limp Mode?

Can anyone point me in the right direction? My missus gets home from work earlier and describes the car as nearly stalling, no power, all the dash lights on, (odometer goes out though) and the speedo reading 70-ish, although she was only doing 30-35 mph. Anyone familiar with this scenario. Its a 1.6 55 plate focus petrol. Cheers.

Possibly instrument cluster. Try giving it a few prods when it's running. See if any lights or gauges start or stop working.
