That's exactly what I have just done, got the fixed bar brand new from towtrust for £221.16 all in, I think i'll knock up an advert for my removeable and pop it on here for that plus postage.
Thats a good price JamesJ, they just quoted me £268.44. How long ago did you manage to get that price and was it direct?

Try these guys http://www.towbarsdirect.co.uk/ they work out cheaper than going direct to TowTrust for some strange reason...I want to see the sweets before I get into your windowless van... I'm not stupid!

Agreed on this - when I got a TowTrust fitted to the FFRR, the fitter wasn't impressed tha I could get the kit delivered cheaper via them than he could as a trade purchase. D4 XS, gone, much loved, never forgotten

a security plate would clearly slow a theft up...not designed as anti theft..but just to stop it coming off whilst going along...add in wheel protector scenario...headlight brackets...how far do we go in stopping the blighters

Well thanks all. I took the tip and ordered from towbarsdirect, which was indeed lower cost than direct. So hopefully next week it will arrive and I will be back in operation once more.
Thanks all

Lake, fill in your profile details for the car and if (who am I kidding ) WHEN you have any issues in future it'll be easier to help
If you're fitting the Towtrust to a D4 it's slightly different to a D3...I want to see the sweets before I get into your windowless van... I'm not stupid!
