dont know how long but can cut out the bad parts and link them up, with new line. a few hours to do getting it in place etc, garage quoted £120 with vat for both lines front to back, but was only the back parts that had gone pitted.

Hi guys finally managed to replace the pipes wasn't that bad bit of a tight squeeze in some places if anyone does theirs make sure. You have a proper brake spanner and lots of patients. I managed to do both rear without cutting the pipes   ;D
