The abs and esp lights come on, then the ------, then powertrain, then brake warning, the speedo down to 0, rpm up and down and then very rough driving, surging and very jerky.
I do have the tracking slightly off, ie the steering wheel is a few degrees off centre when driving straight ahead, this brings the esp light on after a while when driving at higher speeds.
My tyres all match.
As far as I remember I get a speed sensor fault and if I monitor it on torque on my phone it reads speed as 0 mph when driving, all other readings appear fine

This sounds like the old "Front battery issue", is yours a FWD or RWD..?? Best to get your battery/s load tested to eliminate them.
Also might need the tracking fixed and the steering angle sensor calibrated.
