General Towbar Anybody
I can tell you how to make one (DIY style)

I can even supply a DIY made one for the cost of P+P if it helps. Managed to get it from another member, but never used it, and don't need it anymore.
It's in a slight state, but would do as a make shift of as a template one to copy from.

How do you attatch it to the car. I think I've just broken the one on Juppy pulling the 500 on the transporter.
I have a bar without a hitch that MEP sold me last year that I dont need anymore if youd like. £15 and P+P. PM me if interested. I'll take a pic tomorrow if required
I have a towbar but I'm trying to understand better what way it's attatched.
Mine just uses 4 bolts onto the bracket that's part of the car. The bracket to me doesn't seem strong enough to hold the weight of a car and trailer.
Were's Alan D when you need him. :idea: Actually must go and phone him.

Mine also has a bracket that goes upwards behind the bumper and is bolted through the bracket around the tailgate latch.

From memory my towbar is bolted to the chassis.. mines a bit of box section bolted through to what i guess is a rear subframe.
The one on my Sisley took the weight of the Selecta and a dolly bouncing about on it, and also the weight of a mk4 Golf GT TDi when I had to tow that a small distance. And that was only bolted on.
