Could be warped disc's or wheel hubs? maybe wheel bearings? check for run out on hubs then disc's. Are you using standard hubs or have you got so called motor sport hubs to use larger drive shafts? As they flex causing vibrations and pad knock back.

The discs & pads are pretty much still new as the car doesn't really do many miles.
The hubs & shafts are standard.
If it was bearings it would cause some kind of noise would it not?

I would say a warped disc or see if there is any play in any wheel bearings and bottom ball joint

clean the discs up and clean out the inner part of the disc that rests against the hub, could be dirt trapped behind there
