Towbar for 2008 Estima

[eoinvoc]

Has anyone happily and successfully added a tow bar to their 2008 (or later than 2006 anyway) model? I've finding the internet useless at filtering down companies who might help.

Mine came with one on import, dunno of that helps you any.

Hybrid Estima is not great for pulling heavy loads btw

Discussed on many previous threads.

I wouldnt recommend towing much with an estima, i,m told its really bad for the transmission which i found out the hard way after getting a towbar fitted and destroying it.

The OP hasn't said whether they have a hybrid or a petrol .....

As the Estimas are 7 or 8 seaters and if we assume 70-80kg per pasenger if the towing load is not above that kind of weight what would be the difference between a fully loaded Estima and an empty Estima and a trailer with 500-600kg in it, the transmission will be doing the same workload.
