Unhappy Loss of power on acceleration?? :(

I have a mk1 Saxo vts 1998, its got 80500 miles on it, When the engine is cold and im driving the first few times i go through 2nd and 3rd seem to have a let up on the power, the revs seem to just drop away and it loses pullthen once the engine is warmed up theres no problem? any ideas what this could be, is it a major issue? thanks x
