Ok., so we have a winner !
Removed the exhaust manifold and ran it up the road, and the power is back to normal (normal for a 1.3...).
Thanks Yakusa for the comment.
Not sure where your based, but if you have a Wetherspoons pub near you let me know and I'll have a beer sent to your table (other beverages are allowed).
off to order me a new exhaust !

Norway so no such service here due to the strict and strange laws on alcohol.
Grateful for the thought and when in Britain I'll catch you up on that if we meet
I removed the broken cat element inside my manifold and replaced the cat no2 with a "halfords" generic aftermarket cat. Cost was just 75£ -ish.
Now i get a check engine light once every 2-3 months or so but with a bluetooth OBD2 adapter I clear faults on ECU on the go with the phone.
MOT so far is no problems.

So the issue has been fixed.
In a single blast down the motorway something in the exhaust manifold, or possibly the pre-cat, got lose and damaged both he main cat and the rear silencer !
Whole new exhaust from the head to the tail pipe and the Jimny is back in the game.
Thanks for the help guys.
