Smile Bleeding brakes?

Hi Guys,

Just wondering what your thoughts are. I have owned my 240GL for almost 15 years and it now has 63k on the clock. I`m ashamed to say that other than changing the pads i`ve never done any other work on the brakes i.e. not changed the brake fluid!. I know that it should be done but i`m a little concerned after reading some of the previous posts that i`m going to make a whole lot of bother for myself e.g. rounding or snapping seized bleed nipples and then needing new calipers etc. So what are your thoughts should i change the fluid or leave well alone?
Thanks a lot.

Dave
