I would start by cleaning the throttle body and making sure the idle air control is clean. Then check for vacuum leaks. The "refuses to idle" after a cold start but runs fine later once it warms up suggests the leak. That particular vehicle was not sold in the US, but the symptoms are very familiar and apply to most cars.
