hi there :thumbsup:

exactly how much life is left?

even if it has 1mm left you can still go to Durbs and come back !

the handbrake shoes last a very long time - plus with freeway driving for 4 hours you won't be using them as they only work when you use the handbrake .

don't forget to check the discs - probably will need replacing with the shoe as they are normally replaced together .:slap:

hope this helps a bit :thumbsup:
