BTDT, but more recently I towed my dad's Citroen C5 with my Focus, using
a solid bar - far, far better for both drivers. The bar strips down to
three pieces to fit in the boot too. I have yet to try the bars with a
damper in the middle though.


and the source of said solid bar?

Just about any car parts shop. Even Halfords.
