Sounds like the ABS ECU failing. Not as bad as it sounds. They can be repaired.

Have a look here: http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1152729807

EDIT: Might be worth getting the codes read from the ECU first, just in case it's a wheel sensor, but the symptoms sound like the ECU to me.

Classic ABS ECU symptoms .... just like mine started .. then slowly got worse and worse, and the steering started to be affected as well .

As posted on numerous occasions ... bba-reman fixed mine quickly and well ... I believe their price is around £130 now ....
