I want to take a radiator off one wall and turn it to fit on the adjoining wall. Is this an easy enough job? Can microbore pipework just be bent easily enough?

Its not difficult and well within the capabilities of a DIYer. But you need to work out where you are going to route the pipes - that's the hardest bit. If they emerge from a solid floor you may have to route them around the wallseither behind a cover or chased into the wall. You will need a couple of compression 10mm couplers to link the old/new pipes together. Then rebalance the radiator (its resistance to the passage of water will be higher due to the longer pipe lengths.
