does anyone know if another type of tow bar will fit ie say a 308 tow bar will it fit the 2008 crossover

Don't think so. I have just had a 2008 specific Thule towbar fitted but may have made a boo boo. Found out today that the folding camper I have sits a bit too low - cables trailing and jockey wheel tyre now has an unslightly bald patch where it was rubbing off the ground as we were going along (despite being fully retracted for towing).

I was thinking that perhaps Thule towbars are not designed for towing trailers or caravans, but can't find anything on their website to suggest they are not.

Does anyone know otherwise?

Ron Hopefully you have got my message. no problems with my fixed swan neck thule which is set at 425mm centre of ball to 450mm to top of ball

Thanks for your assistance Hatter. My towball is sitting at 300mm (below the level of the bottom of the bumper). Will have to get this sorted out. Thule are not answering my emails.
