I’ve thought the battery was sounding a bit gutless over the last few months, is it possibly as simple as the battery is gubbed or is it going to be something more sinister?
Deffo look at the battery - these cars hate low batteries / voltages and will throw all sorts of red herrings at you...

New battery; fit it, register it and you should be sorted
