This one does not have the braided cloth covering.
The only real Abrasion Stress Point is where the hose passes through the Engine
Compartment Metal Sidewall @ just right behind the Passenger Hood Hinge.
I'd put a Rubber grommet in the opening ,if you're concerned,and run the hose
through the grommet.
Normal Retail (That's Not a Stealership) appears to be about $5.50 per meter.
Any coolant rated hose with the correct I.D and O.D. will suffice.
You do realize the Over Flow Hose routes to the Over Flow Tank located inside
the Passenger side Fender-well?(Accessible by removing the "Plastico" inner fender liner.)

This hose has started to fall appart a couple of inches from where it connects to the reservoir, and it is braided. Why? I don't know.
Is that a part number you listed on the top of your post (#021 997 76 82)?
Thank you for the input!
