Picking up Range Rover Sport

Hi,

I hope to very soon, would of been today, but now tomorrow, picked up a 56 plate RRS.

My beloved old RR has been chopped in so looking forward to something a bit newer.

Anyway, I wanted to fit a two bar for carrying 4 bikes, I have the carrier but need a tow bar, I have been quoted £750+ to get the Swan neck and electrics sorted, I decide on £250 for the electric's and would get the Swan Neck off ebay, then I thought I would ask here, but I fall foul of the rules, not been here long enough, not enough posts etc etc. If I could get one from someone on here and donate some money to the site, I thought that would be better. If not is there somewhere cheapish that I can get a swan neck tow bar from, I have seen on ebay for up to £150, not sure if that is too cheap as dealer wanted £500.

I have been registered on the DISCO site when I had those but since I moved to RR I haven't been on that site for a while.

Thanks, Felipe

Can you not use the standard removable tow bar?
If so it can be done for around £250 for bar and electrics.

If you can use a detachable tow bar mines in the for sale section. Fitting the electrics is a fairly straight forward job as well. Theres a how to clip on youtube Thumbs Up MY 09TDV8

Hi, if yours is available how does the payment work, I don't want to break site rules etc. Also what would be the exact costs.

Thanks

Depending on the rack, the detachable tow bar will work with a bike rack Thumbs Up ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i
