First breakdown!

Traveling home from holiday on Saturday, as I was approaching Southend had to slow and then crawl along in the traffic. After about 20 - 30 mins the revs had a bit of a moment and then cut out, attempted to restart but just kept struggling with the revs and cutting out. Gave her a rest for about 15 mins and she started again only to do the same 200 yards up the road.
Gave in and called the AA, they turned up about 30 mins later and typically she started fine, AA guy followed me to the In-Laws with no problems.

At no point did the temp gauge go up to suggest she was overheating even though it was a roasting day and i was crawling in traffic. Drove back to Wiltshire Monday and had no problems. Anyone else experienced anything similar? Must admit was a bit sad, had her nearly 9 years since new and it is the first time she has let me down.
