It sounds like it's possessed by demons. An exorcism may help Failing that, it could just be the cooling fan running on. Quite common in cold weather after heavy traffic. |

There are quite a few things it could be ranging from a faulty ignition switch to worst case scenario pre ignition caused by carbon build up ..
How far is your journey ?
personally I wouldn't risk it mainly because it might turn off on its own and not restart..
Is there any chance you could hire or borrow a car instead. |

"Theyre prone for sticking ignition relays does it run on for 10 seconds ish"
Almost certainly switch or relay as described
Driving should be of no concern although if stopping for a break starting may be difficult if it were the switch nothing break down cover would not solve though |

I think you will be fine. Hopefully just an ignition switch or relay issue.
I don't imagine modern engines having a carbon build up.
Hopefully it will be fine for Christmas and you'll have a good time. |
