I agree your one beats the old one hands down.

Anyone with steel brake lines over 20 years old is gambling. 30 years or more? Russian roulette with a pedal.

Old one isn't original, it has the tell-tale annular 'grip' marks that the £12 cheapo pipe flare kits make, which incidentally are only capable of flaring soft copper unless you add extra clamping force to the pipe clamp.
All the lines were copper already, but in my opinion they were not safe.
Capable of flaring copper yes, but only if operated correctly, honestly the pipes I’ve chucked in the bin are terrible replacements.
Conscious I haven’t updated this in a while but I have been busy working away on the rangerover.
This update misses a load of steps, like almost entirely rewiring the whole vehicle!
But I am pleased to say it now has an MOT and is back on the road!!!
Still loads of bits to finish, like door cards, headlining, and much of the interior. But we can finally start putting some miles on it.
