From my limited experience if the front disks have warped you will feel a judder through the steering wheel when braking. Happened to my wifes BMW and my old Galaxy many years ago.

It was awful to brake on you could feel it massively through the steering wheel, it started about a month ago but seem to go down hill really fast.

sounds about right. I found that it was also speed related. The intensity of the judder increased drastically at higher speeds. The discs must have been of poor quality

Yeah really bad coming off a dual carriageway or motorway they were Volvo discs that came off with ferodo pads.
