  • Westfalia detachable tow bar for S2 avant / RS2

    As the title really, the Westfalia part number is 305 142, the Audi part number is 8A0 092 155 A. I have contacted Westfalia and they told me that the jigs for this tow bar were scrapped in 2003 meaning it can never be made again.

    Thanks

    Hi
    I have a brand new one off an RS2. It's in it's original bag with the white cotton gloves that go with it. I have'nt a clue what it's worth but as it's quite heavy there would be quite a bit of postage charge.

      Thanks to Simon I now have the correct detachable towing hook for an RS2. I still need everything else though. The only bit which is specific to the RS2 is the part I now have so if anyone has the rest of the parts from any B4 avant or saloon then that is what I need. Also, if anyone has the frame and brackets fitted to their car but do not have the detachable part, I will send you the original bumper brackets if you are willing to sell the towing frame and brackets etc.

      Thanks,

      Matt

          Collectively we have everything but individually we both only have half of what we need! I'm hoping that someone who has lost the towing hook will sell me the rest of the bits. I need to tow a car quite soon but I'm determined to get hold of the Westfalia tow bar, it is so much better than any of the others available.

            I have both but not installed on the car

            Unfortunately I am too far away. You could bring a frame to someone and have them make a copy....wouldn't it be possible?

                The main 'U' shaped bit would be quite complicated to fabricate, the brackets might be more possible though.

                Are you looking to sell it as I would be willing to pay for shipping within reason.

                I don't suppose you could be persuaded to sell the parts you have could you?

                  If you look on Jeffer's RS2 restoration thread he has a pic of an alloy A4 tow hitch on his car, not sure if this is in combination with the original Westfalia bar though. It would be worth asking. When I first got my Westfalia towbar fitted on the coupe I didn't have a hitch and used one from an Audi 200 which sits a couple of inches tpp low. I hassled the UK Westfalia distributor a bit and they eventually found me one at a dealer somewhere in Europe.

                      I don't want to sell. What U part do you mean?

                        The main frame that the tow bar locks into, it Is not all made from box section and the piece to receive the tow bar would be difficult to make.

                          I drove through Rostock a coupe of months ago (I assume that's where you're from). It's a shame I didn't know about it then. I will have a look at how much shipping would cost. Do you have an idea how much you would want for the tow bar? PM me if you want.

                          Thanks,

                          Matt

                              Would you sell me the towing hook?!
