Jezmunkeh Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 So, while I’m not new to Fords, having owned Sierra’s, Granada’s mk 3 Escorts and a 1980 Fiesta Ghia, I am new to the 2011 1.6 TDCi Titanium Econetic I now own. Short story is, I want to fit a tow bar, for nothing other than my two bike rack. I can’t fit roof bars as there are no mounting points, and I know it’s not type approved for towing, though my insurance company are fine about a bike rack. The question is, will a non Econetic tow bar fit mine? Are the chassis holes pre drilled? Any help much appreciated 👍 Jez 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
