  • Tow Bars, stick um on? 22 Mar 2002 (Forum)
    Fitting a tow bar, is it the kind of thing you normally do yourself, or as my garage says, do you need "specialist" equipment and knowledge? The parts for tow bars are easy to order and come with instructions, but how much of a 'self-assembly' job is this really going to be?
  • Combo Van Towing Weights 14 Mar 2007 (Forum)
    I have arranged a trailer that is not a full sized car trailer and need to know if the van will be able to legally tow the car and trailer ok. I need to find the weight of the trailer I know but I get the feeling it will be too heavy to tow legally. The Vauxhall handbook gives such vague info on towing it is as good as useless.

  • Caravan towing speed record 5 Nov 2002 (Forum)
    The event, held at Mafikeng International Airport, also saw two South African records broken - the diesel towing record (also the world record) and the petrol towing record. The petrol record was set using the same caravan as the diesel attempt but this time being towed by a Mercedes Benz ML500, the powerful V8 4x4 setting the record at a breakneck 174 km/h.

  • Towing 17 Nov 2011 (Forum)
    I have just done my morning run up the M6.  I saw a Nissan GT-R being towed and it made me laugh a bit (early morning schadenfreude). I think I'd be very cross if I'd spent over £70k on a car to have it conk out just after Lancaster. Anyone else seen anything amusing on towed?
  • Towing a motorcycle 31 May 2005 (Forum)
    Over the weekend I saw a car towing a motorcyle. Nothing unusual you might say if it was on a trailer. No it was being towed using a rope about 20 feet long. It looked highly dangerous to the rider and other road users. My question is was this illegal?

    Apart from anything else, the motorhome driver cannot see the towed car in his mirrors. Surely this cannot be safe?
