Attached is a video of the car running atm.
When it happened I lost all engine power and had to accelerate extremely hard to get it to go anywhere else it stalled so it's undriveable as it is. Also the instranents aren't working.

I've checked the sparks and there all fine.

I've been told it could be: coil pack or vss sensor which would explain the tacho not working.

any help would be appreciated.

dear me it's rough. Sounding like running on three cylinders only, check the coil pack/spark plugs.

Pardon me from saying so, but that crappy air filter ain't soaking wet or is it?

I would get it plugged in.. see what the ecu has flagged up.

then after.. fit a OE filter and box.

Engines now running and all drives fine,

but none of the intraments are working still, neither is the lights for them.? And I think because of this the choke is permanently on? Any idea? Thanks for the help so far though it was the coil pack

No choke on a fuel injection engine!

Oh right okay? Well any clue on the clocks not working?

Check the charging rate of the alternator.
