yea cheers mate, like i say chances are it wouldnt have been like that and probably passed fine which means whoever fitted the bushes after there must have damaged them when fitting the new bushes cos theres no mention of wear or advisorys for perishing to the pipes.

But obviously if they say they didnt damage them when fitting the bushes and theres no way 2 weeks of driving would have caused 2 hoses to split like that then the mot will be bought into it as like i say 2 weeks of driving wont split 2 hoses in the same place for no reason!!
