    FR Hatchback Towbar Dilemma

    I need to have a towbar fitted to the back end of my pristine FR hatch.

(unlike the ST which has...

    surprising increase in fuel use when towing

    Last weekend we used the (optional extra) foldaway towhook on the Cupra Ateca. Mrs perelaar insisted on visiting Ikea for new cupboards, so trailer rented, and off we went. Single axle trailer, about 2,5m long. Tip: don't go to Ikea on Saturday afternoon. On the way there with an empty trailer...

    can you put a towbar on the back of a cupra ?

    can you put a towbar on the back of a cupra ? i'm currently looking at Golf GTi's but the Cupra is sooo cheap it would be rude not to consider one. The only downside is i'd prefer a 3 door not so much for looks but because of my height i tend to sit in the back. Anyway towbars, its not for a...

  8. Towbar electrics

    :help:We had an independent specialist install a towbar and electrics (7 pin plugs) just after buying our Seat Altea XL Stylance 1.9 TDi (in part because the dealer encouraged us to due to the high cost of Seat kit and fitting). Mainly, this works fine, but three or four times we have hooked up...
