Hurrah!
Rear brake lines nil, Pieman 2. Got them off with a bit of lateral thinking. The front unions were seized but the back ones were free at the compensator end. Undid the free ends, then rotated the brake lines off the seized union nuts.

After finishing that, did a quick bleed at the rear end, remembering to copper grease the bleed nipples. Ended up with a pretty firm pedal right off the bat - that's a good start. Will give it another cheeky bleed before MOT if I remember but it should be fine.
Whilst I was under there I fitted a new fuel filter - took a whopping 45 seconds including getting it out the box!

That said and done, I think she's ready for MOT! Can't remember what else I need to do, if anything!
