• Tow Bars, stick um on? 22 Mar 2002 (Forum)
  Fitting a tow bar, is it the kind of thing you normally do yourself, or as my garage says, do you need "specialist" equipment and knowledge? The parts for tow bars are easy to order and come with instructions, but how much of a 'self-assembly' job is this really going to be? cheers!

• Towing 17 Nov 2011 (Forum)
  I have just done my morning run up the M6.  I saw a Nissan GT-R being towed and it made me laugh a bit (early morning schadenfreude). I think I'd be very cross if I'd spent over £70k on a car to have it conk out just after Lancaster. Anyone else seen anything amusing
• Towing a motorcycle 31 May 2005 (Forum)
  Over the weekend I saw a car towing a motorcyle. Nothing unusual you might say if it was on a trailer. No it was being towed using a rope about 20 feet long. It looked highly dangerous to the rider and other road users. My question is was this illegal? No I did not get either registration number
• Is towing a car behind a motorhome safe? 17 Nov 2020 (Forum)
  It's Easter weekend and I saw a motorhome towing a VW Polo using a rigid bar. Clearly, the owner wants to use the car at his destination, so he could be towing it a long way. I worked in a recovery garage 20-odd years ago and we were told the rigid bars were only suitable for short runs
