One of the issues I've found in the past when researching things like towbars online is that many suppliers will use a generic image of a towbar for all models, so the image doesn't actually look like the real thing.
It translates as 'tug for volvo 440' The part number label shows the same number as the previous towbar picture and that number does lead to a 440/460 parts manual.

I hear what you say about the use of generic pictures but both of these do have the same Volvo stock label still attached.

Having just looked at your photo again: the towbar matches the line drawing in VIDA.
The image I found at first was a pdf of an old Volvo catalogue, which was similar but not identical, sounds like VIDA was updated to the real thing.
