sally broke down today

, i had a big red brake light on my dash illuminated and a loud buzzer, when i stopped i had a big puddle of brake fluid under my front wheel..... the front flexipipe has broke and was nissing brake fluid all over the road , r.a.c. man eventually took me to a local garage who ordered the part , fixed it , topped up the brake fluid ( seemed to take loads

) , bled the system .... took about a hour......cost ....... £60..... not bad huh ?

I'm sure it could of been a lot worse Pete, at least you were able to stop safely.
Is it worth having the rest of them checked too?
