For Sale: One slightly used tow pole

[TheBoy]

I know it's fun to overtake Tunnie in his 4 pot, but best done when not on tow. 

Oh, hang on, you said rear towing eye?

I got told off in my 4 pot for towing his dead V6 too fast   

Ah, but this time I had disconnected the propshaft ready for a decent tow...

So what needed to be towed? 

Bullet.

Whats feked on it now?

Nothing 

Well, not that won't polish out.

Are those tow poles any good in reality???   ....

I'd say no. I have one that's exactly the same shape as that of Jamie's & that was a replacement of another that did the same. Maybe the none spring version might be better ...... 
I just wish I'd made my own when I had the chance to. I made one up for a lad where I used t work, 3 lengths of box section (2" & 1¹/₂") that fitted inside itself with a similar hook to the Machine Mart poles. I'm sure I could've towed a bus with it.

TB, that poles not nearly bent enough. Lend it to MDTM, he does a proper job on them.

I like the ones used by RAC, 8 foot long and seemingly solid steel.

Just don't fit in the boot without modification to pole/boot

I was thinking along the lines of something heavier quality, seen them with a tow ball fitting to go onto the towbar of the towing car, and look to be made of box section.....

Apparently we are going to in for a very bad winter....

Mine was damaged due to misuse. She drove over it, despite being attached to both cars. Don't ask. Just don't ask.

It had seen a reasonable amount of use, including several Omegas, which are close to its weight limit (don't think I've used it on anything heavier).

The damper does take out a lot of the inexperience of the driver being towed. *IF* they remember to turn the wheel

Yeah, but for a girl, Mrs TB did an impressive job. Esp as we'd only gone about 10yrds. Daft mare
