Quote from who?

MG quote $899 plus 2 hours fitting which should work out quite a bit
cheaper than that and you could probably save even more if you shopped
around. I'd suggest Noddy could fit it but you really should take it to
someone competent who doesn't use Imperial tools on metric fasteners :-)

Correction, that's for the ZS EV. Yours should be $999 plus 2.5 hours
fitting.

The towbar kits come with the fasteners to prevent that sort of thing
though I'm sure ol' penis-fingers would still find a way to fuck it up.

Don't worry Felix, I wouldn't do it anyway. As much as I think you're a

fitting a towbar to a car that would struggle to pull the skin off a
stale custard tart.

can't tow anything even remotely useful.

If this is your idea of doing your pre purchase "research" then I'd hate
to see what you would drag home "off the cuff" :)

droid who would try to flog you a bunch of shit because that's often
where they make a tidy profit.

Odd that they didn't.
