Ford Mondeo over revving

Car: Ford Mondeo
Variant: 1.8 LX
Model Year: 2004

Categories: Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss

When I pull up to a junction, and stop the car, the engine immediately revs to around 2.5 - 3000 revs before dropping back to idle. This occurs whether in gear or in neutral.

Any ideas please?
