Intermittent power to the instruments possibly at the instrument panel?
I will assume that the engine does not jerk or seem to shut off for an
instant!

Just out of interest if it does, what is usually the cause of that?

Just a follow up double ta for that diagnostic the other month. Got the
ign switch ordered and have been driving around since with it in the
glovebox, just not had time to fit it. New Years Day I lost just about
everything electrical as the switch had finally failed. Luckily I'd got
the switch, so no waiting a week for the part to turn up (with new year
closures and all that) so a quick favour pulled & I'd got it fitted by
mid afternoon.
