Hose pipes, a favourite bodge by my uncle when in a pinch and needing to use his beetle or 'fix' my mothers  :laugh:

Hose pipes are very useful short term fixes for mk2 water pipes... they are a perfect fit for one of the pipes that went on both my old mk2s

I seen an old boy put hose pipe on his rusted montego wheel arches then he smoothed them in with body filler,hose pipes are very useful to some  :laugh:
