MG Midget and Sprite Technical - new hoses

i cant get my head round the fact that i have a 10 year old peugeot and have never had to fit a new hose on, and on my midget they are only 2 years old and one is crazing allready!

Granted there neon barbie colors... purple, lime, orange

Mark,
you've obviously missed all my posts about rubbish rubber and not just hoses and posts from others saying the same

I've got a set of these silicone hoses with round-edged clips - http://www.classicsiliconehoses.com/
Nigel Atkins

I have also got a set of hoses from the same company as Nigel. They are not cheap, but they are fit and forget and are a much better option than rubber ones because as Nigel points out, a lot of modern rubber is crap.
My rubber wish bone bushes lasted three years before they started to split and crumble, so I changed the whole car to Superpro urethane bushes. Once again, fit and forget.

Bernie.
