Detachable Towbar (Witter) +electrics - V90 (V90CC or S90)
 

Hi All,

I've removed my detachable towbar from my V90 and plug-and-play CAN electrics. Mine was a D4 R-Design 2018 model. I believe it will fit most V90, and also the V90 CC and the S90 (but I'm not fully sure on the latter 2 cars).

If anyone is interested in buying it (it is an easy self install IMO) please do contact me for a chat.

They are about £600-£700 new (including fitting). I'm looking for a sensible offer but equally not looking for a fortune (so think £200, but open to offers).

Location is in Holmfirth, West Yorkshire.

Thanks, Nick


It was fitted in Aug 2018 and removed 3 years later - not used for towing trailers or caravans - just used for bike carrier.

The towbar is a detachable Witter with keys. You just remove the tube cap and insert the neck into the fitting and it self attaches.

The electrics just plug directly into the cars wiring harness - the plugs are in the back right corner of the boot in the v90 and the 13 pin cable then goes out a bung in the spare wheel well. The only wiring needed (if desired) is the fog light cutout on the car - you just find the relevant wire in the cars harness (cut), add connectors to each end, and insert the cutout connectors on the module into it (so the fog light now goes via the module).

I can provide lots more photos if anyone is interested. Close ups, photos of the de-install, etc. One photo attached to show all the bits.

Any interest anyone? If the indicated price is wrong please let me know and I will definitely consider an offer - no point it going to waste.

I'm selling a fixed one myself too. I think your price is spot on considering the electrics alone are c.£150+. Think its just the time and low demand at the moment going into autumn/winter. Sure someone will snap them up.
Maybe we should try and get it known that there is a towbar shortage and create some panic buying!! :teeth_smile:

Thanks for the message Beavis - yeah definitely a tow bar shortage out there!! :devil_smile: :tongwink:

Good luck with your sale. I might give mine a shot at FB Marketplace or the like, but figured a forum such as this will attract the DIYers more than there.

Hi All,

Reinvigorating this thread to see if anyone would be interested.

We are heading into spring and Easter holidays will soon be here. If the price is a concern then have a chat with me.

Also if anyone needs help fitting i can probably assist on that front.

Thanks, Nick

Price Drop
 

Price Drop to £150 to generate some interest.

Hi All - the towbar and electrics are now FREE to anyone who wants it, as it is still littering my garage floor (private only, no trades or onsellers).

Obviously at this price I can't ship it or deliver it, but collections are welcome and I promise to be friendly.

I will ask for a small token (bottle of nice whisky would grease the wheels) for me to open my garage door :teeth_smile:

Cheers (please WhatsApp me on +44 1484 688 194)

And it is now SOLD/GONE.
