This is the only option....there is no 1200kg rated one for the Turbo manual?And if you can choose either 1200kg or 1600kg, what is the actual difference? Are any suspension settings or similar altered for the 1600kg?It may be that only the 1600kg is available so there is no choice for me to make, but thought I would check just in case.

The manuals can now tow 1600kg due to the larger diameter clutch they use. The suspension isn't touched as there is only one option for a genuine tow bar - 1600kg.

seventytwo Still have a turbo, it's just on a diesel. Legacy Donating Member 5,368 Member For: 21y 2m 16d Gender: Male Location: The 8th Dimension Posted 10/11/08 07:19 AM Posted 10/11/08 07:19 AM I would get the square tube style hitch, looks a lot neater when the tongue is removed
