I have correct TowBar I’ve checked and double checked , problem is we’re it bolts or is supposed to bolt on the the rear frame at the sides there are no holes pre drilled on my car , it’s a 14 plate VRS estate .  The TowBar is a westfalia removable swan neck , it is listed as to fit my car and I’ve checked with manufacture and it should fit. Anyone else had a similar problem , am I stuck with a car I can never have a TowBar fitted to ? It is really important as I need a cycle carrier TowBar carrier as roof to high for the wife , and I’m not having anything hanging of my rear door thank you . Below is photo of we’re it should bolt to and the arm of TowBar . When it is in place it is a couple of inches short of reaching the first hole .

Since you have a Mk3 posting in this Mk4 forum is not the best place...

Thanks for the reply , id found a thread on it last night and I think your correct , the holes are hidden by tape and underseal

and mechanic missed them totally , good news for me though I know my car can be fitted with a Towbar so other than a wasted day

back and forth ,nothing else is lost. lesson learnt .

thanks again
