Come across these little nastys today on the rear of a 204, now rusty brake pipes are common but the alarming thing about these were the spilting pipe across the rusted area, a real heavy braking could have caused a burst pipe!!

Maybe the most alarming thing was the age of the car, 5-6 years old max!!!!

It not good is it, all you 204 and 211 owners, make sure you have them checked as often as poss...............Photos dont show just how bad they really are...........
