A friend of mine had a Citroen Picasso, it had an EPB which was good as his wife was a terrible driver. It was automatic, 5 seconds after coming to a halt the EPB would activate. Pressing the accelerator caused it to release. As with most vehicle electronics, it was fine while it was working until the day his missus stopped at traffic lights in the centre of town and the brake refused to release.
So now you want 2 brake lines to be rusted out (dual circuit) and a total electronic failure?
Come on Data. anybody reading this would thing Range rovers are unreliable
At the end of the day I guess its an owner maintenance issue if it ever got to that point.
New stuff is here and we cant stop it. There are 2 choices.
I remember in my previous life moving heavy wts up and down with a big 5ft crow bar brake handle, then it moved to the joystick.

I've seen worse. Mostly shiny and smooth with a few spots. Not sure if stubborn grime or rust starting, but pretty grim down the middle
It will get me through the MOT then i can strip/fix/replace properly

Dual circuit the brakes may be but when all the fluid departs from the broken pipe, the result is no brakes. Ask me how I know.So now you want 2 brake lines to be rusted out (dual circuit) and a total electronic failure?

Don't know about RR brakes but Powerhouse Automotive in chesterfield do top rate brake seal kits and pistons if needed for bikes. Used them for the Yamaha, the triumph and the Honda. Barely any extra cost over some eBay kits but streets ahead on quality.
Take doughnuts.

Car driven by man who died in double-death crash was riddled with faults
Jordan Patalong, 22, died in the incident involving his Suburu Impreza
The story is shocking, but i can't believe the MOT, which was current, was honest. Suspension doesn't just fail overnight or even in a year. Taped over dash lights won't help

Plenty of bent MOT's in the UK.The story is shocking, but i can't believe the MOT, which was current, was honest. Suspension doesn't just fail overnight or even in a year. Taped over dash lights won't help
Bet the garage that did the last MOT isn't investigated
less potholes
