Im confused about towbar rules....... :confused::confused:

I have a Nov1998 300tdi. and have been reading up about fitting a tow bar.

I have a ( witter? )type tow bar bought off flea bay, but it has no plates or model numbers or anything on it.

a) should it have ? if so what should it look like?

b) if I fit it , would it fail mot?

c) haven't thought of a 'c' yet

regards

sorted it for you. :cool:
 
Thanks Redhand,

it is a 'late' Nov 1988.

so what is all the curfuffle about re: markings?
 
Sorry it is getting late & me eyesight is fooked. thought5 this was the fender section :eek:

if it's a Private light vehicle with less than 8 seats it has to meet type approval or can't be fitted. so unless it's a commercial discoya can't fit it.

Sorry to get ya hopes up.. :eek:
 
Mine has one of those things fitted and it wasn't even mentioned on it's recent MOT (a failure for other reasons but tow bar not mentioned lol) and by recent I mean last Tuesday.
