+2 on drag link springs being a potential culprit. I remember my Box saloon would do this from time to time 'back in the day'. I was standing outside the garage once when waiting for the MOT tester to return after the brake test (in the 70s) as he hove into view, it kicked off. He got back to the garage and leaped out of the car with a look of panic on his face. Needless to say, I got a fail. But replacing the drag link springs made the problem go away...
