I've seen them towing, so you certainly can do it!

Sorry, not sure of cost. I don't know if a dealer will supply and fit a towbar? Probably cheaper to go to a specialist towing company.

Don't rely on what's listed on website. Get on the phone and speak to a few people, more likely to get a result.

I'm thinking I might have to occasionally tow with mine, as I won't be able to afford to keep my V8 Landy as a 3rd car. It'd only be a car on a trailer or a small boat, only short distances and rarely. Though I might look into a removable one, or just remove and refit it a couple of times a year when I need it. I believe the options for IS200 are possibly cheaper though. (Will be looking 2nd hand too.)

Which car is that for? Or a general limit?

Surely it'd be safe to carry more if the engine was more powerful and the trailer was braked?
