I towed twin wheel caravan, Brian James race shuttle and a plant trailer. Only issue I found was that the bar worked down over large mileage but if you want secure, the heavy duty version with bolt on legs is the best version 2x TDV6. SE and HSE. Both returned to sender with issues👀

It's not a question of can you tow regularly with the removal bar, it's a question of should you do so. People can and do (see above) but LR say you shouldn't. If you tow a heavy trailer every weekend then you should fit the HD bar according to LR. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

I have both types of detachable tow bar and tow many different things from horse floats, bike trailers, agg trailers to heavy (4 tonne) boat trailer from a compound to the launche ramp plus I have just purchased a large caravan.
