Towbar gone...

[rock]

an impusive descision today, removed the towbar....don't ask how I will carry the mountainbike from now on, but it does look better (and lighter)....

Before

After

For now I have just siliconed up the holes drilled into the wheel well, anyone suggest anything else I should do ?

 

[LegoHead]

Is this because you found out they were illegal?

 

[rock]

illegal ? what you on about ??

 

[TheCake]

No type towing approval I would imagine

 

[edde]

There legal on none RS cars just the RS cars there illegal on as there not type approved.

Funny realy as both cars have exactly the same shells

 

[rock]

things are a little different down in s.africa.....anything goes.....no MOT or anything......cars nearly 5 years old and never been road worthied

Just don't speed too much and you're fine, but if you do thats fine cos there's no points system on your licence!

typical renault, but i suppose the RS doesnt have enough torque for pulling a caravan, or maybe they just thought it would be ghey.

The 1.2 Clio has been type approved though.
