In my experiecne they always seems to say there is slight deterioration to brake flexible pipes. Bushes on the ARB are quite easy to change. Front discs worn - Hmm if there was a problem then the brakes would have failed - That said they may be worn to the point of requiring replacement. Personally I would advise you to get the car MOT'd now see what it fails on (if anything) then fix those things -.

Agreed, get the MOT done and replace the failed items only.

 

Sounds like a standard set of items by garages touting for unnecessary work.

 

Brake discs and pads have minimum thickness. From memory I think the minimum is 19mm or 21mm (disc) and 2mm (pad).

 

The only sure way to check if brakes need changing is to take the wheels off, inspect and measure.
