just remembered that if you do get a second hand one , ensure it comes with the strength plates that fit onto the tow bar to underside of the bumper.item no e1 on the pdf. they tend to leave them on the car

I may have a Witter VL32 for sale shortly.

A nice Pizza Hut delivery guy left his car unlocked, with the keys in it and the handbrake not fully on and his car rolled down a hill and wrote off my beloved S70. I'd only had the car 16 mnths and had the towbar fitted about 14 months ago. I had it removed to re-fit on my next Volvo S or V70.

The insurance isn't settled yet so nothing's definite but the V70 I'm keen on already has a towbar fitted. It only has single electrics though so I'd use my twin electrics. I'd also need to use my Alko ball but would replace with the towball from the V70 and the V70 single electrics.

I've not thought or looked at prices or courier costs but feel free to make me an offer.

No problem Jim. Thanks for letting me know.

I've managed to get a car with a towbar and double electrics so mine is available(including the double electrics) if anyone else is looking for one.

Hi, checking http://www.witter-towbars.co.uk/towbars/price_list.aspx it looks like it's a VL38 you need for a C70. Mine's a VL32.
