  • If your car has a towing bracket*, please use only special tow bars with suitable attachments (i.e. tow bars which are specially designed for use with towing brackets) to avoid damage to the towing bracket.
  • If your car has a towing bracket*, please use only special towing ropes (risk of accident).
