hi

you can find a bar here http://witter-towbars.co.uk/towbars/price_list.aspx

a V70 XC is also known as an XC70

Nope i,m afraid not, i,ve tried that site they only list V70 not AWD, or XC70 from 2002, i believe V70XC and XC70 are completely different, but thanks anyway.
regards,
pacman.

I had a late model V70XC and the only towbar I could get was from the Volvo parts counter. Annoyingly it was a Brink but when I phoned Brink in Holland they told me that some bars are precluded from third party sales by the commissioning manufacturer, thanks Volvo!
I bought it and got a mobile fitter to fit it and the leccy bits.
I went through every towbar supplier I could think of before I was forced down this route, the problem being, I think, the higher ride height meaning that the bar's geometry has to be different.

Missed out on one on ebay, it was made in belgium, but the owner could not supply me with the make! I too have tried various suppliers, found one that will do me a unit from Belgium £300, bit pricey. I agree with the ride height theory, or just a beefy price for a beefy car!
