Ok please bare with me, the van failed its MOT today on the back brake pipes that all meet togther into the cylinder (not sure on the term he used sorry)
Now the garage say they will make new ones up using copper to replace them-is this the right way to go or do i post up for some new ones or second hand ones?
I am very green so please be gentle :oops:
forgot to say its 1989 1.9 lpg watercooled x

Slightly unfair Ian... it was the missus that failed to get it there... :rollin

And I could have done a pre mot inspection to see if anything might need doing... :wink: So, you have bought a new van then?
