Vehicle Information:
The Polestar 2 Towbar and dedicated towing electrics are now available from Telford Towbars, complete with vehicle specific towing electrics. It’s great to see another electric vehicle on the market with a credible 1500kg towing capacity.
Our Installations:
Take a look at one of our most recent towbar installations for the Polestar 2 below, including a detachable swan neck towbar and 13 pin vehicle specific towing electrics. The benefits of the detachable towbar ensures that the neck can be removed when towing is not taking place, ensuring the smart looks of the vehicle are restored.
Towbar fitting prices vary depending on the vehicle specification. The easiest way to find out the costings of a fitting is to use our online towbar quote builder linked below, which takes as little as 60 seconds to complete!

7 or 13 Pin Electrics?
When you are towing a standard trailer or have a lighting board attached and even a bike carrier a 7-pin vehicle specific kit will enable all of your light functions for this job. A 7-pin Vehicle Specific Single Electrics kit provides all of the basic legal lighting requirements for towing and harnesses perfectly with your car. We never fit by-pass or universal electrics to your vehicle!
You will need a 13-pin Vehicle Specific Electrics kit for towing a caravan because it provides all of the legal lighting requirements for towing, as well as powering the electrics inside your caravan. Most caravans, manufactured after January 2009, will have 13-pin electrics and will also connect to your reverse lights whilst providing a full power supply inside your caravan. Please note if you have the older 12n 12s style electrics we will still fit the latest electrics to your vehicle and then simply provide a 12n 12s to 13 pin adapter.

Our customer wanted to go for a detachable Towbar due to the fact the bar would not be in use all of the time. The other reason was that they didn’t want to spoil the look of the new car. We chose the Tow-Trust detachable Towbar that has a towing capacity of 2400kgs. The Audi Q5 dedicated electrics is the 13 pin kit from Right Connections that integrate correctly with the vehicles canbus system it was then fully coded with our very own Complete Diagnostics tool. Don’t forget all of our towbars are fitted with the coding included in the price.

The new Volkswagen Multivan is an attempt to square this circle. Despite appearances, the name, and being manufactured by VW Commercial Vehicles, it’s not based on a van at all. Instead, it’s a bespoke people mover (mostly) based on the same MQB as an infinity of other Volkswagen Group products, while successfully evolving all the clever interior features that have made generations of Caravelle so popular with practical lifestyle buyers (and executive transport firms).
It’s also the first VW of this type with plug-in hybrid power, comes with DSG as standard, and is available with a reasonably high level of tech, including up to 25 driver assistance features and standard-fit LED lighting.
There are two lengths, seven seats, and you can have it in a somewhat exotic range of colours – including some slightly challenging two-tone hues. These and the new chrome beltline option are an attempt to marry the Multivan’s aero- and safety-optimised exterior design with the cultish Microbus heritage.

This new second-generation Lexus NX is representative of a new attitude from the Japanese premium brand. It’s the first Lexus to be developed under a new strategy that its chief engineer says is bringing the brand back to basics, with a more self-critical approach. And it’s also the first Lexus ever to come with plug-in hybrid power – drivetrain technology that, until now, has been out of favour with Lexus despite its long track record of electrification.
Below we have one of the new generation Lexus 450h in at Telford towbar for a detachable towbar and 13 pin vehcicle specific electrics.

The MS-RT Transit Custom certainly stands out from the crowd, and the hand-crafted interior brings sporty luxury to a van unlike anything else we’ve ever seen. It’s a credit to the team at MS-RT that they have turned the Transit Custom from an everyday workhorse to a genuinely desirable vehicle that has a sporty edge that few SUVs, let alone MPVs, will be able to match. The chassis tweaks are well judged, too, boosting comfort a little over the standard model.
Having a towbar fitted to this sporty van is no problem here at Telford Towbars over the years we have completed many all fitted with the Right Connections vehicle specific electrics and a detachable towbar from Tow Trust. Having the vehicle specific electrics means that all of the saftey features are acivated when fully coded to the vehicle. Dont forget our towbar fitting prices all include coding so no trip back to the dealer your vehicle will leave the workshop ready to go!

There are many car-bike racks on the market, so finding the right one can be tricky. However, here at Telford Towbars  we’ve done the research for you and compiled a list of the top four car bike racks in that we recommend. So, without further ado, here are the best car bike racks on the market! Whether you’re looking for something simple and easy to use or something more robust, we’ve got you covered.
A question to ask yourself is how frequently do you need to carry bikes?
How many bikes?
And…
Which vehicle or vehicles will you be using?
You may require a bike rack for your motorhome?
We are happy to advise you on any of the above here at Telford Towbars.
Call us now on: +44 (0)1952 608750
Another question before you start looking is how are you planning to carry the bikes?
There are many factors to consider, and one of the most important things is the value of your bike. There is no point in risking a cheap bike car rack if your bike is worth a few thousand pounds!
Bikes vary so much in cost, style, size and weight all these need to be considered.
The main types of bike rack are roof-mounted, boot or trunk-mounted and towbar or hitch-mounted.
This is one of the best bike racks for cars currently in the UK.
The Thule ProrRide is a great choice and is ideal if your bike has mudguards, because rack wont interfere with them which is different to those bike racks that hold the bike by the wheels.
You do have to clamp directly onto the down tube bike, however the jaws have been designed to minimize the risk of damage.
This hauls one bike and requires a base bar system.
If you have a Thule or other base bar system or you have a vehicle that already has factory cross bars. The RockyMounts versatile TomaHawk upright bike rack is really ideal.
This bike rack is very versatile and it can haul all sort of bikes including kids bikes.
Loading a bike onto the rack is quite easy because RockyMounts roof racks include tabs so the wheel straps are kept out of the way.
Loading a bike is relatively easy since RockyMounts includes tabs to keep the rack’s wheel straps out of the way.
A disadvantage maybe that the lock on the base rack doesn’t rate as a top scorer.
Storage wise it folds down well.
Many e-bikes are just too heavy to lift onto a car roof or load into a hatchback. This clever – but very expensive – rack might be the answer to your problems if your car has a tow ball. Being low to the ground it’s a lot easier to lift e-bikes or heavy mountain bikes into place. They are held in position using adjustable and removable arms with clamps which click loudly when at the correct tension, so you won’t damage expensive frames. The whole assembly can be tilted out of the way of your rear tailgate at the press of a foot pedal, so you can still access the boot.
The cleverest feature of the XT 2 is its ability to fold up for easy storage in a garage or shed – there’s even a built-in carrying handle to make it easier to move around. Its big brother, the XT 3, even has a wheel so you don’t even need to lift it. The design includes built-in rear lights and a number plate holder.
Finally, we recommend the Menabo Carriers these are available in various sizes for carrying up to four bikes;
Have a look to see if we have the right one for you?
 That’s it for our list of the best car bike racks in UK. We hope you found this post helpful and that it has given you a good idea of what to look for when purchasing your own bike rack. If you have any questions or would like some help finding the perfect product for your needs, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us here at Telford Towbars. We offer a wide range of car bike carriers and accessories, all of which are available for purchase on our website.
