I'm wanting to fit a tow hitch (bar here in UK) to my w115 240D manual (w123 motor). I know it's going to be sluggish, but won't be towing massive heavy loads long distance, mostly small local firewood loads. I read in another post the limit for a 123 300D was 750kg unbraked, will this limit be the same for me?
The motor seems healthy (180k), and I have no reason to suspect the gearbox is on its way out (same age as motor). Does anyone know of a UK tow hitch that will fit? Do you need to do any welding on installation?
Thanks
Harry
