Yes it was for safety reasons.

Because the car is over 10 years old, some official (government) garages that do annual technical revision of car in order to continue being on the road find that 10 years old car must need to replace the flexible hoses (safety reasons) according to their experience with much less reliable cars than our Soarers. My car failed this revision because of the flexible hose. I was not sure about this because apparently there was nothing wrong with these hoses. I took to another official garage and the car past the test straight away. However, this event was bothering me and prompts me to make a query in this forum. I was told that some of these ‘garages’ just want to make an extra profit by telling you lies.

Thanks Ben for your help.
