Default Brakes momentarily stuck on after sitting for 2 weeks, now have bad vibrations!

My car was parked up over Christmas for a couple of weeks during the cold weather, when I went to drive it next the brakes needed a gentle bit of oomph to get rolling, nothing unusual I thought,

Came to use the brakes for the 1st time and got major vibrations thru the pedal and steering wheel, tried gently riding the brakes in the hope it would skim the disks up but it's still there, gradually getting better tho.

Should it clear up eventually or are they mullered, classic type r.

Car is pi$$ing me off now, seems like every time I drive it something goes **** up on it, (lights cutting out, firing on 3 cylinders, brakes, exhaust blowing.....)

Maybe one day it'll actually run how it's supposed to.

Thanks, rant over.

Go and get your brakes hot. Do a good cross country run. That'll sort em out
