Keep an eye out on the sales forum here - £150 is usually about right. This is a big problem and they are a bit "vulnerable" I'm afraid. Also there have been a number of thefts of spare wheels at Bluewater in recent times too. Might want to watch out for that one Sad An RLD spare wheel protector will put paid to that.

Sorry you experienced this fella, sign of the times sadly Sad

Best,

Sorry to hear of your misfortune.

On the plus side, if you are intending to do a lot of towing they may have done you a favour as the removeable towbars can wear over time. Spend a little time searching on here for related threads before buying a replacement. If only an occassional tower (?) the the removeable is fine.

Yeah Steve my friend has had it happen twice he had stormer wheels fitted too so expensive replacing them plus the cost of the mount again where they cut the cable sad that you have to worry where you leave your car
