Isn't that the reason for mot inspections once over 3 years old.
Years ago it was quite common to have to change brake lines.
My old 1981 fiesta supersport needed them in 1988.
Sounds like a typical attitude of blame culture.

Changed them on a few peoples cars myself, remember changing them on a mk2 astra sri, a Cavaliar etc etc. "7 winters" sounds like something from an old fable

The models affected are 2005 through 2009 Legacys and Outbacks, 2008 through 2011 Imprezas, 2008 through 2014 Impreza WRX/STIs, and 2009 through 2013 Foresters.

So anything pre-2005 is fine

edit/ scratch that, any pre-2008 imprezas is fine.... cool.

Already had my letter for the spec B, it's not actually the lines but a connector at the rear that sits above a splash guard which can cause salt build up and therefore corrosion. No cars on uk legacy have yet required more than a clean and a spray of Waxol.

Took the Spec B (2004) to Culverwells following the letter. All ok under there.
