The hose from reservoir to master cylinder has enough capacity to keep it working. Which in my mind removes the last real weakness of an excellent system. I do wish they'd adopted Saab's "dual diagonal" system for emergency braking, instead of either front pair or rear pair. There's more tubing but you get equally good braking whichever pair fails.
