Very rare failure.....try starting and running the car with the MAF disoconnected (this will use a set of default values resulting in poor acceleration but should stop it cutting out).

Also check the connector to the MAF for water damage

if it needs replacement, i think Albatross on here got a new patern maf for under £50, or genuine are over a ton, has the car got/always had the standard filter?
