It doesn’t have a tow bar but I’m expecting it to be about £2k. It’s going to be quoted on Monday but I already have a £2k quote from Lookers. I’m expecting the dealer to give me a deal as the ticket price was agreed on the strength of a deal on the tow bar. |

Interesting..... I’d expect 1k for a fixed removeable and 3k for an electric deployable - so not sure what 2k buys you |

I was told £2k for the deployable but I’ll have to pay whatever the price is less the “deal”.

Hi Red Merle, I was fisherman on the 3/4 forum and made loads of use of the immense knowledge over there. As can be seen here, the experience of people is what I find most useful. I fancied the deployable from a convenience point of view but the Westfalia detachable seems pretty good value should the dealer “forget” the deal I wanted. I don’t really want a tow bar on show but we’ll see what happens when they come back to me. Fingers crossed. |

I think the deployable is the least ugly option but the cost is pretty steep (in line with the LR policy). The detachable is the next best thing but not as hugely overpriced as my first choice. A fixed bar is possibly the strongest option but I don’t really like the look of all the metalwork which I think is messy. I’ll have a word with Dan at Duckworths to see what he would charge for the kit and see if it’s possible to either fit myself and get the dealer to enable or get my local Indy to fit. As ever it’s either too late or Sunday to get a definitive answer. Thanks for everyone’s advice on the subject as I now have a good idea what to show and what to hide from the wife. |

I bought my Westfalia through Dan and got my local tow bar people to fit it for me.

The receiver tow bar sounds interesting. Yes please to the link. |

Classy indeed, is the rear lav part of the “Royal Ascot” Autobiography spec? |

If the roll fell off it would be a bit dangerous for anything hanging in the vicinity 😳 |
