Looking to add tow-bar, suggestions?

Postby DrSebWilkes » Thu Aug 24, 2017 11:27 pm

I got my lovely series 1 E-type convertible here, but it's just missing this vital bit of kit before I take her on my holiday.

Any suggestions for what type to buy, or general advice?

Suggest very lowline fitment in Chrome finish. Careful where you drill for the mounting bolts...try for a rust free area. Bluetooth connection for the lights will ease the wiring problems.

Is this another hacked acount? I thought Seb was a 17 year old with an XJS. Maybe he needs the E type to trailer it around :roll:

Fitting a tow bar to an E-Type??

Is that even possible?? I have my doubts that suitable mounting points can be found and if I'm not mistaken, tow-bars now have to be CE certified - or does that only apply to more modern vehicles?
