Ford Mondeo ST brake problems

My 55 plate Mondeo ST TDCI has a problem. It starts ok but when I pull away the ESP and ABS light comes on. The hand brake light also starts flashing on and off. When accelerating away after start up there is a slight judder as if ESP has kicked in then it runs and brakes fine after that.

Probably the standard brake pressure valve problem. www.sinspeed.co.uk can fix it for £225, but the ABS/ESP module has to be removed from the car and sent to them, then put back again.
