About two weeks after I purchased my 00 230K my car exhibited exactly the same behaviour, it turned out to be a faulty air mass sensor.
I agree that it is almost certainly the MAF. It takes 10 minutes to change and you only need a screwdriver to loosen a hose clamp and retighten.

Make sure that you only buy the Bosch brand MAF:
