dont drive it home unless you`ve got an AA card handy. It wont get you back if its running on 3. Could be anything, then again it could be a quick fix

get it a few miles from matey, then 1/. call AA. 2/. get a cuppa tea. 3/. get it relayed back!!

Vast majority of faults like that are electrical. Most likely points, clean and adjust, or ignition leads or plugs. Some people would say for a Viva that three isn't bad. You'll soon learn how to do these jobs if you own one. Good luck.

aa didnt quite work out as planned! wasnt electrical but mechanical

and ive sill not got the car!
