Hi Jonathan - got your e-mail too - thought I'd answer here

Try Maxxraxx - http://www.maxxraxx.co.uk/ - they might have something suitable, although you might need to invest in a detachable towbar. Like this site? Buy some RRSPORT goodies to show your support!

BTW on the Maxxraxx list there is no RRS listed  2009 Range Rover Sport 2.7 TDV6 SE, Alaska White, Almond leather, tinted windows, active rear diff, tow pack, HiICE, full spare: gone and already missed

Worth an e-mail or call as I know lots of DISCO3 members have them. Like this site? Buy some RRSPORT goodies to show your support!

Thule Euroway IIRC - towball mounted - electrics fitted

Just don't use a boot mounted carrier. I have seen several that customers have attached to the rear spoiler which is just plastic and attached with clips.

Best bet is tow ball mounted, but obviously it's expensive, or 2nd would be roof mounted.

Get one of these http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/DISCOVERY-3-RANGE-RO...7C294%3A50 then get a Pendle ball mounted carrier. http://legacy2.pendle-bike.co.uk/Nulldet.a...ery%20Rack Works well for me. RRS TDv8 HSE Rimini
Disco 4 TDv6 HSE Ipanema
Defender 90, 200tdi CSW

Well, I used my Euroway at the weekend.... Really great. Sport mode, country roads - all good...
Except....

The black platic end caps and the first bike wheel holders melted off. Guess the supercharged RRS is HOT!

The tilt function is a must.... 2022 P440e AB

Also, the towing electrics I had fitted don't fit the Euroway. Is there an adapter that I need or do I have the wrong socket on the car? 2022 P440e AB

Do you have 2x 7 pin or a 13 pin set up. You can get adaptors either way. The 13 pin is the newest type and uses one plug rather than 2. Porsche Cayenne S Diesel 66 Plate

I have only one plug on the car... - So thats a 13 pin?
- Where do I get an adapter from? 2022 P440e AB

Try a caravan shop like this http://www.towsure.com/category/7198-Europ...Converters Porsche Cayenne S Diesel 66 Plate

Stop!!!!!

You need to take a look at what you have
Due to supply issues the twin 7 plug electrics have been in short supply recently

Thanks to Nick at Yeovil I have fitted a single Euro spec 13 pin on mine
The Thule is Euro spec and comes as standard with a 13 pin plug

Some dealers tried to sell me a single 7 pin which will pull a UK trailer or caravan but not supply the juice for accessories - fridge etc

So if you have 1 socket you need to work out if its 13 or 7 pin
If its 13 you are cushty and Thule stuff will plug and play

If its single 7 pin you have a bit of a dud and need an adapter
Naturally I suggest a good Google to check the above

I have an brand new unused unopened one of these:

I bought it as part of a deal then realised that I must have the only RRS in the country with Euro elecrics as standard not the prehistoric twin set

Make me an offer

Cheers
