Could be the disc, I left my old rover 400 sitting for 10 days and the pads had welded themselves to the discs , after driving for a very short distance they freed off but the noise was horrendous.
Basically the top surface of the disc had come away where the pad had stuck.
A by product of cheap discs and pads.
Cured by replacing discs and pads.
