Towbar for all VW Corrados

[mildmanneredjanitor 0]

I know this is sacrilege to most of you...

 

Just found it at last...

 

I got my towbar from here: Watling Engineers Limited

 

Took a bit of jiggery pokery to fit (much easier to take bumper off first if I remember?).

 

But no drilling to the car :-P (apart from for the electrics) :cry:

 

But having the bracket is an ideal compromise, I can use the trailer or bicycle carrier or both simultaneously! :-P

sounds pretty cheap only problem is i want a removable type of hitch so you cant see it at all when its removed but i might be able to get a local engineering company to alter it for me :wink:

 

thanks for posting this up 8)

Just found their own website - Direct instead of through supplier, even cheaper £92.50! and looks like they can customize too! :D

Looks like a good one and one which doesn't mean writing off the bumper during fitment. Does it attach to the bumper bolts?

 

I'd rather attach a towbar to my arse than my car, but it looks pretty impressive all the same :lol:

There are holes already in place which are covered by tape (on mine anyway) but not on the later ones I believe? Have a look at the installation destructions I posted.

Needs must my good man!

I'm such a trail blazing trend-setter!

i wouldnt normally put one on mine but its a damn site better than putting very muddy mountain bikes on the roof or boot and if i get a removable one no one will tell the difference, plus its only four bolts to remove the whole thing :wink:

 

trust me it wont be towing any caravans just a very light alloy bike trailer 8)

And there was me thinking that Haywire Engineering Inc would approve of a removable tow-bar.

 

Now where's that embarrasing side on nude shot of Mr Haywire gone... :lol:

OK, took wife, kids and dog out today in the van :-P , and took a piccie to show how the cycle carrier looks.

 

Not the missing trailer board... :oops:

 

Bit of a squeeze, but you can actually fit three bikes on it.
