Ive used 8mm lines. You can buy it fomr B&Q.

I know you can buy plastic lines as well from GBS which may be easier to work with. They will be rsistant to ethanol as well. (whereas the copper ones will eventually have problems)

Thankyou for that David, well impressed with the build, almost on the road now ! Seems to be a fair few of you up there in the holy land building Haynes Roadsters, hopefully you are all fans of the mighty Toon !:rolleyes:

I used 10mm copper as that is what I had laying about. I then had to buy bits in 10mm rather than what the sierra had (8mm) so it prob cost me more in the long run.
