Re: Tow bar fitment guide
Ten bikes? Should be do-able: 4 on the roof, 4 on the back, 2 in the boot But I'm not hanging anything from the hatch again, I used one of those carriers for a while but it damaged one of the boot lid hinges ...
Now I need to find other things to tow with my new towbar. A caravan, a boat maybe?
And then ...

Re: Tow bar fitment guide
More tow bar pics. It's rapidly turning into my favourite accessory
Didn't fancy climbing back up the slope with the trailer though, so the wood had to go in the 300. Of course, it coped admirably

Re: Tow bar fitment guide
It just about fitted into a McDrive entrance A Paddy Hopkirk roof rack would have completed the picture of course
I reckon I was towing around 6- 700KG. A 360 is allowed to pull 1200KG - I can't imagine that being much fun on a longer journey ...

Thanks Mark Yeah, I like those square lamps too. Pity they're so wobbly, dispite the proper mounting bracketsvØlvØfreak wrote:Nice pics Tom! I love those hella's in the front!
