Can you explain seized up alittle better ? Do you mean it doesn't crank at all ? Or it cranks but not fires ? Did it just konk out or did you turn the ignition off ? Do you have an immobiliser in it ? We need more info buddy .

Wouldn't crank over, so I left it for a few minutes web it would crank over an idle it just cut out, tried it again after 30mins started up just like normal

you might want to check your self by running the diagnostics as its easy to do.
yeah that explination on the soarer central site isn't the greatest description.
but in the ENGINE BAY not the cabin, on the passenger side of the engine just next dip stick you'll see this fella
open him up and you need to wedge a paper clip or similar (bit of speaker wire) in the ports labeled te1 and e1
then hop in your car turn the ignition to on, one light on the dash should start blinking, i cant remember which one does you then right down the flashes and they corespond to the numbers in the soarer central link i posted. but your dash should look something similar to this
so say error 55 comes up. it'll flash 5 time then a pause and flash another 5 times then a long pause to say thats the end of the error code so basically "o_o_o_o_o__o_o_o_o_o____" gives you error code 55. 4 flashes and then 3 flashes gives you error code 43.
you can also press the scroll button and it will come up with some other things anything with a NG besides it means NOT good. if you leave it on there for a second it should come up with something like "EFI NG" and then display the error number. there's a bunch of guides out there that will tell you how to do this.
