I have owned this vehicle for twelve months, always serviced and maintained. It has now started to cut out as though out of fuel but only if driven continously for 50+ miles. If it is left for 30 mins it will then restart and will drive for close to the same mileage and cut out. These symptoms have been present on several commutes. I now stop at 45 miles for a half hour rest. I think it must be something that is warming up, as I have no problems on short journey's. Timing belt done, head gasket done and a full service.
Have you tried opening the fuel filler cap ? as a vacuum in the tank can cause this sort of problem.
Doesnt happen on short journeys because vacuum doesnt become strong enough on short trips.
Causes a Whooshing noise when the vacuum is released, stopping allows the condition to recover slowly.

this is what i'd check first. see if you get a whoosh of air when you open it.
then get a new cap, if that's how fls vent
