I can only relate what I have experienced. I don't think 1 is a very good reference sample. So, in that regard, I am not really suggesting everything.
The bursting hoses have all been on cars that have spent significant time in Vermont where the climate reaches a deep freeze. The last hose I had that burst was in a year when the winter temp was as low as -40F, and then I took the car to Washington, DC where it promptly blew up a hose on a hot day.
The hoses are available here in the US from the site sponsors at a very reasonable price. I replaced most of the hoses on my 91T this last winter and I think the most expensive one was $9. I usuallly give the hoses a good squeeze when they are cold to see how crappy they feel. When Kappy's hoses are feeling crappy, in the trash they go.
