Hydraulic Handbrake
Just wondering, has anyone fitted a hydraulic handbrake to any of their cars? How much approx do they cost, and are they worth it? My baby has had constant handbrake problems since I had her!

I thought the reason handbrakes were cable driven was because it can also act as an "emergancy brake" (the name for the handbrake in the states).
So if you have brake fluid loss, you can still slow the car down with your cable operated failsafe hand brake.
Maybe this is the reason why MOTs require a cable operated brake.
