Sounds like a missfire to me. How old are the plugs?

Got the same symptoms here and have had for the past month or so.

Certain is an ignition fault so either plugs/leads /disspack probably in that order....mine did have a slight leak from the cam cover gasket so imagine it is a lead boot thats starting to fall apart and at high load causing an arc...will investigate when it gets a bit warmer 

Imagine given the year of your car similar ignition fault

Any vaccum leaks? Any codes stored?
Equally sounds like a flat spot - sure your timing (valve/cambelt timing) is ok?
Also is this a new fault, or has it always been there? If new, when did you first notice it?

sounds like a vacuum supply problem to the multiram system to me.
