Another quick question:
Had a look on my rear brakes (drum) and there seems
to be no rubber hoses on them, instead thin metal pipes plug directly
on the side.
Are these kits 4 hoses, for front and back?
Is there any point in getting them just for the front?
Seems like a waste of half the kit no?
Cheers.

lol - when I bought mine I was assured [granted, by the vendor] that all 206's had the same brake hoses.
Without specifying what model I had, the Goodridge brake hoses fit my 180.
PS: 205's & 106's have several different brake hoses

I'm not sure.
I'll have a look at a friends 1.4 HDi tonight that has rear drums but I imagine they are just copper brake lines.

Thank you CD.
Any point in fitting just the front in that case?

Had a look last night and there are hoses going to the rear drums.
Look under the car more, they're pretty close to the fuel tank.
