It is a wise move to get all the brake lines replaced. About 3 weeks ago
i had an accident in my mini due to poor brakes, combined with not having a 3 second gap. Now it is written off and unfortunately im mini-less.

Commiserations mate...I assume you are OK, thats the main thing.

Keep in mind, they made millions of Minis so there are still a few left out there for you to choose another :idea:

Did a flexible brake line blow to cause the accident :?:

Sorry to be the one that asks but do you have any pics of the damage, info on what you hit/got hit by etc etc?

Expensive way to learn a lesson - thanks for sharing it!

At least no-one was hurt, and that's a good thing!
