1.8t elegance estate front towing eye

Featured Replies

Hello all! Long time lurker, first time poster.

 

I've got an issue with my mk1 Octavia Estate, which is the 4x4 1.8t Elegance model. The issue being, the brakes - or rather the lack of! 

 

I intend on having someone tow me hone with a solid bar, but I'm not sure where the tow hitch is on the front. I'm led to believe it should be a screw in one, and the eye would be located in the spare wheel toolkit however I don't think it's in there from memory - if that is the case, are they fairly easy to acquire?

 

Thanks in advance

It’s behind the left hand bumper grill when looking from the front.

Cool thanks for that. Is it a screw in one or is it welded in place?

It’s a welded in loop.
