   I know it's obvious but simple service? Could be a blockage in the air system. Or fuel filter?

   It will probably be either a dodgy spark plug or a dodgy injector, when was the car last serviced?

   As above probably a spark plug or an injector, you normally have to put your foot down and wait for them to work if one of them is knackered
   
   It happened on one of my work vans, it juddered in low revs and had to wait a couple of seconds for it to work properly, turned out to be a dodgy injector

   my foot down or dip the clutch

    As a temporary fix put some injector cleaner in the fuel tank.
