Umbra Rimorchi Tow Bar

[murphyabu]

Morning all,
Has anyone got experience of the Umbra Rimorchi detachable tow bars? They appear to be considerably cheaper than the competition but at what cost.......

(I have already sourced the dedicated Westfalia wiring kit for a factory prep T6)

I fitted one on my wife's 3008. No where near the same quality as a Westfalia. Was fine for her 3008 but I wouldn't put one on my T6.

Interesting,
They appear to have many of the same performance stats, nose weight etc.
Was it the materials used, assembly etc?
Thanks

Much cheaper design for the removable hitch, poor paint finish, poor finish on the machining of parts. Detailed instructions but they had mistakes so that meant lots of bumber fitting and removal to get a tight fit for the cut out (not relevant on a T6). Also it went quite rusty in less than 1 year.

That said it was cheap.
