sounds like the car is misfiring,check your spark plugs,coil and ht leads,get a diagnostic done to reveal any fault codes stored as could be a faulty sensor

id say its the coil pack but get diagnostic test done to make sure it is first as coil packs for opels are fairly expensive to replace. well the coil pack for the 03 1 litre is anyway
