I'd have a look at the ignition switch..
Does it cut out when stationary and the steering wheel is turned?
If you remove the cover does moving any of the ignition switch leads make any difference?

or even wriggling the key about in the ignition switch?

Have you got a large bunch of keys/trickets hanging off the ign key???

i would check the keys i had my key on a bunch and sometimes when i turned a corner it would catch on the wheel and switch off the engine, failing that check for something loose on the ignition switch
