Brakes what brakes? 
You mean you've got some?  

I thought that's what the anchor and chain are for, attached to the back bumper. 
When you really need to stop, heave the darn thing out the window and at the nearest lamp post! 

You'll get used to the brakes mate, they just need a good stamp - although when you get back in a newer car you'll end up having your face ripped off!

Like above, some pics please!
