I highly suspect this is lambda sensor related, I say this because my year 2000 uk had the exact same symptoms as yours and i replaced the sensor with one of these cheapy ones from ebay and it cured it instantly. The only trouble is..... They only last approx 6 weeks. I'm currenty running a (Bosch) sensor from a 80,000mile Nissan primera but i think it's on its way out too. I believe, (but could be totally wrong) that these sensors are prone to failure on the my2000 because they run so rich, even richer than my99 models.

disconnect at the plug, replug it at mot time. Shouldnt throw a cel. See how it drives.
Its normal for it to hesitate slightly under 3000/3500rpm when cold until it gets up to temperature. My00 also does it and has done for 4 years.
