Default Tow bar question

Are there any detachable tow bar available for our cars like the swan neck ones without having to cut the bumper.

or this one

I have a fixed one from these people, was a good fit on my tourer

when you compare the price to fixed you may nt want detachable

I don't think my bumper was cut. Let me find a pic and see....

Nope there is definitely a cut underneath where you can't see it. Sorry!

the saloon rear bumper already comes with a section "cut out"
The Tourer you have to cut (at least you do for the fixed one I linked to) but it is underneath and cannot be seen.
I have just had to get under both bumpers to check for a cut out

Default Towbar

I have a Witter detachable swan neck on my saloon. It’s a bit more than some other towbar manufacturers but no need to cut the bumper.
