Hi
I have purchased a Dethleff Globtrotter Advantage A6731 and will be collecting it next week.

The previous owner has offered to sell me the tow bar for £200 but I do not intend to tow anything behind the van, will the towbar be of any use to me in the future?

David

Hi David

Welcome to MotorhomeFacts.

I've taken the liberty of splitting your query from an old thread to stand alone in order that you may get a better viewing and response.

The main advantage I see of the tow bar is the ability to mount a bike rack on it without having to drill into your motorhome.

Cheers

David

But the van has already has a bike rack fitted so there does not seem any point having the tow bar fitted.

So that answers my question.

Hi David, just read your message re the towbar for a Dethleffs A 6731. We`ve got the same `van and are currently looking for a towbar. Did you buy it and if not do you know if it`s still for sale?

Dave.

The tow bar will cost £200 and weigh more than a few kilograms.
So, save £200 and quite a few Kgs off your vehicles weight by not getting it. Wink Smile

Thanks for your advice EJB, but we`ve several hundred KG`s load margin free (MTPLM 4000kg) and need to tow a small boat trailer `cause it`s a long way up onto the roofrack @ 3.2 m, even for a light dinghy like ours!

I`m keen to hear from David to see if the tow bar may still be for sale.

a tow bar may well save you several hundred pounds worth of damage i know ours has on several occasions including a fight with a gatepost when reversing
