Discussion
Ref. Hoover...Thought as much ! (only kidding !)
Mechanic thinks coil ?
Ah well, will try that first........fingers crossed.

That's what happens when you buy a car off Hoover 
Not really, this unfortunately is part of the joy of running a 15 year old car, I'm sure it will be sorted easily.
Plug leads, throttle pot, Dizzy or something simple like that.
New coil bought at 10am and fitted by me at 10.30am
Result = car back on the road !
Car now runs very smooth indeed. Before, it didnt like running at low speeds in high gear (car spluttered and kangaroo`d) now car picks up immediately ....seems to run quieter too. (not too quiet ;-) !)
All for a £14.99....oh, and some advice from my mechanic last night.
Panic over !
