Saloon towbar please

Post by Nigel Bickle »

I'm looking to fit a bar to the Gti 1.9 I've recently picked up.

Anyone got a spare- at a sensible price?

I've got one free, still attached to car though, so you'd have to take it off.

Bit of a shame, unless you were going to visit Derbyshire over a weekend anyway?? & then you could pop round & plunder it :D

I dont live far from Matlock, so it is rather pleasant countryside round here, & not far from the Peak District either....See, i'm selling you the ideal parts holiday....

Holiday Mulley? I think he should move up North where the air is pure and women fresh and water flows like fine wine from the Buxton wells.
I once went out with a girl from Buxton, the place is lovely.

Apologies for the thread hijack.

Not a million miles away from me is Buxton, loads of lovely places such as Chatsworth, Bolsover Castle to name but a few. I must admit that eversince i moved out this way, i've loved the peaks, hathersage, castleton & all the beautiful places around that way, superb.

Good driving country as well, as long as you avoid sundays when all the townies come out in their droves & they cant drive round corners....

Must admit, if i could move to near the sea, i'd be there like a shot :D

I actually quite like living in different places, as most regions have some real highlights that invariably cant be found anywhere else....

I suppose thats the happy medium about where I am. Countryside on the doorstep, Heart of the Lakes 45 minutes away, coast 20 minutes away. I have to say, if I do end up getting a new job I will miss the sight, sound and smell of the sea on a daily basis.

I saw one in Edwards the other day, still attached to a TZD I think. But Mark will get it off for you. It'll cost a bit more than from a member that's the only trouble!

If not, anyone got an Xantia? Genuine article.

Just a note of sincere thanks to ''Bill O'' for the kind donation -and delivery of his towhitch.

I hope I can repay the kindness, one day.

Thank you
