Sounds very much like the coil amp. They give you trouble when they warm up. They're 140 quid new for the little thing from Vauxhall, so just get a coil from a scrap car for 20 quid. They're the little black box under the coil.
I think there's a way of checking by seeing the voltage across each of the + - points on the coil, I think it doesn't 'switch' properly between the two when the amp is knackered, but a start with that, I reckon that's what it is.
