I've noticed of late that occasionally my car pulls away with a real thud almost like there is no drive until 1500rpm and it comes in all at once

Any ideas??? , the gearbox oil was changed about 6 months ago

Could it be that the weather is not so warm and its holding on to the lower gears to warm up the CAT

You do have a CAT.

A fault in the gearbox has probably been logged.

The atf level must be checked first but I suspect a faulty speed sensor in the gearbox.
