Hi am new and just picked up my aristo, have noticed even with the handbrake off the handbrake light still stays on or will come on after a while of driving. Also after 20 mins driving, if you apply the brake it makes a beep noise, is this bad??
Cheers. _________________1995 S2 silver

Sounds like you have an issue with your Brake Master Cylinder - The beeping is the cars way of telling you your about to lose assisted braking..
Either needs a whole new BMC or just a new accumulator..
Is there any other lights on on the dash?
