Redrobie Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Hi, I am looking for a towbar for my Manta B Coupe. If anyone has one going spare please let me know. Thanks, Bob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redrobie Posted May 17, 2015 Author Share Posted May 17, 2015 Thanks, but I really need to have one before Billing so I can bring a trailer tent down. Would you be willing to get me the size and weight so I could get a courier to pick it up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redrobie Posted May 18, 2015 Author Share Posted May 18, 2015 Hi Julian, I had seen that one but like you I am not sure it would fit the coupe. I would guess the bar under the boot floor could be different. Guess someone has one, it's just a matter of who, where and when one crops up.

MANTAMAN Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 I have got a a hatch tow bar and they are very different to a coupe, the hatch has to get round the tank under the rear floor / spare wheel well. It might even be cheaper to make one yourself, all they are is 3 inch square box, some 3 inch angle to form cross braces and a plate on the end with bolt holes, even if you could not weld you could pre-cut all the pieces to size and have someone weld them up.

lewis p Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Sorry I forgot to get back to you. I do have one it's still solid but fairly rusty.However I used one of an e36 bmw which fits very well and mounts almost exactly the same ( probably a lot easier to get hold of) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
