I'm getting mine fitted to Citroen Pluriel by Towtal in Stoke but there's also Chris Cox in Birmingham. My Fiat Seicento has a Chris Cox A-Frame and we've not had a problem with it in 5 years. It does look a little, errrm, agricultural on the front of the car. The Towtal system is a couple of eye-bolts and I think even they can be removed.

Regards
Doug

Default Towing Frames

Hi,

just seen your request.

We too have a Chris Cox towing frame, yes it is basic, but it works well, plus the price is very competitive, especially if you talf cash.

I think his web site is chriscoxtowingframes.com......or....co.uk

He is based in Birmingham.

Hope this helps, good luck

I have recently had a very bad experience with TOWTAL and although they did their best it was not quite enough, with three days before I left on holiday I had to call Chris Cox to help me out. What a Super Guy not only did he do the job that I wanted doing he also rewired my tow car and it only took an hour. The other company required the car for three days and then didn't do the job to my satisfaction.

I can not praise Chris too much for his help I will always be going to him in future. His Tel No 0121 681 6513
