My mum had exactly the same sounding problem on her old Ford Orion. She spent ££££'s replacing the carb on advice of the Fraud Dealer. It made no difference. Turned out to be the HT leads in the end. It seemed that they only started playing up once they had warmed up enough under the bonnet, and as it happened it mostly used to be at exactly the same spot down the road on her way to work. If it is the same in your case it would be a good result for your tight budget. My general rule of thumb (assuming it can't easily be diagnosed properly by the home DIY mechanic) is try the cheap things first.
