Tow bars on french cars

The car I was asking about was the new one I plan to get - not the one that has now retired!!! Thank you very much Terry.

I saw a tow bar on a latest model Renault Twingo this evening. You don’t get much smaller than that.

Hi, I have just bought a Skoda Fabia, 999cc petrol, 1541kg in weight, and 2341kg max allowed weight of vehicle plus a trailer/caravan. An 800Kg trailer is my limit.
