Looks a bargain at the minuet, you should bear in mind that the fitting kit and brake cable are made as one off's for each vehicleat a time, it more than likely won't fit any other without modification if at all , you will be suprised at the diferences between two so called identical cars

Yes Geo I agree but most of us Rv owners are usually quite handy at modifications, I know that I am, and can adapt most things, and most of the time these things are fairly straight forward and not rocket sience!

A brand new one fitted for under £500 makes the one on eBay look like daylight robbery!!! 
C'mon Keith, spill the beans, where'd you get a deal like that?

from the ebay listing..............
No mileage was added to our vehicle when we towed it in this manner compared to some other towing methods.
eeeerrr. how do they do that then, my speedo still clocks up the miles while being towed. 
electronic speedo perhaps.......dunno. but then it wouldnt clock no matter how you towed it.

mine was cheap at £120 complete +£80 for diesel to essex and back to collect.
add to that £70 to manufacture the towbar/electrics on the van and its cheap towing.

My Kia has an electronic speedo and never counts the towed miles.
