Towbar fitment: fouling LPG tank in spare wheel well??

[YorkshireBloke]

Hi All,

Thanks for following what may be the most boring posts on the forum. Other folks are fettling V10s, sorting gearboxes, surgically cleaning paintwork...

And I want advice on towbars....

But hey! That is my take on the A8, a towcar that isn't a truck with a diesel engine, something that I want to drive when I am not dragging a caravan!

Soooooo, I have the offer of two towbars, one from our Sponsors at a very reasonable but still £££ (£200 as it "just needs a bit of work", genuine AUDI), or £50 from a forum user (copy, not tasty quick detach).

Before I decide I would appreciate the experience / knowledge of forum members:- does the towbar fitment goes anywhere near the spare-wheel well (and my toroidal LPG tank)??

If it does that might just delay my purchase: would have to go to an LPG specialist to get the tank off then they may as well fit the towbar. Place in Doncaster seemed very capable but they do need paying....

Thoughts please? Want to get this towbar thing off the Forum so I can talk about overtaking the two cars and a bus as I knew they would slow for my favourite corner on the A169 coming back from Robin Hoods Bay....
