Default Towbar. Type44 saloon

Looking for a towbar to go on my V8.

Preferably a genuine audi one if there was such a thing. Otherwise, others considered. Hopefully, there is a version that doesn't require me chopping huge lumps out of the bumper.

I'll bear it in mind, but looking at the pictures, it explains why many of the supply and fit centres are talking of chopping a great lump out of the bumper.

I'm hoping to get some more info though.

I personally think you will have trouble. Just buy another car to tow with!
