The beam you remove is Boron steel it is extremely hard you can't drill it .( look it up ) Which means it performs like something about 5 mm thick , it is designed to decelerate the car which goes into the back of you before it hits the volvo chassis a further 4 inches in and starts disintegrating .. This greatly softens the impact to the occupants of the car ...

This info is very helpful, I am reconsidering to get towbar or not, surely even with volvo towbar the cushioning zone would be affected?
