When I fitted a towbar to my 406 estate it bolted to the two rails either side of the well and to two fixing points just behind the the bumper. These fixing points are designed to take a towbar so I would think that most major towbar companies would design their towbars to use them.
Who is it made by?

The better tow-bar manufacturers liaise with the vehicle makers and all modern towbars have to be "e" marked anyway for which considerable testing of the bar and mountings is required.
