Western Towing. They have branches in Exeter and Newton Abbot.

Just one thing; is this being fitted to the V40 mentioned in your signature? It may well be worth your time speaking to Volvo about the towbar electrics as on some models - I don't know if this applies to a V40 - Volvo offer a plug in wiring loom. For my last V70, it was just £13 and included the socket and everything. That is considerably less than I was quoted for non=genuine towbar electrics!

Otherwise, there's PF Jones who supply towbars at extremely good prices. I fitted mine myself and it was very easy, but time consuming. However, they can arrange fitting too:

Thanks I have the volvo wiring kit for it already towbar is for my s40. I just need someone too fit it for me basically, I can do the wiring side of it that's not a issue.it looks very awkward too fit youre self and quite heavy especially lying on youre back wouldn't be so bad if you could stand up underneath it.
