I like many owners I object to moving rubbish in my car, hence the fitting of a tow bar to pull a small trailer.

The garage where I got the car not M.B. fitted it complementary so can't comment accept to say it didn't appear to me to be straight forward.

The white arrow indicates the small cutout which had to be made in the skirt hardly noticeable while the bar is fitted , try and retain the cutout for replacement purposes. Having said that it does afford that little extra protection at the rear, from the "bumper bashers". The ball stands well away from the rear of the car preventing those trailer hitch scratches that always seem to appear with trailers.

Cost, Sept 03, Bar complete with electrics and mandatory go faster ball cover £120 89 all in delivered next day delivery, Purchased over the phone from TOP GEAR Product Ref. No Tow bar= TGMR750e.
I was quoted £75.00 for fitting by a local t/bar company but they couldn't touch TOP GEAR for price on the bar complete.
