Thanks for asking.
They fitted an aftermarket towbar and genuine VW wiring loom. Took a few phone calls and complaining. I don't know if VW have approved the VW towbar yet.
Tows beautifully. Set cruise on 100 km/h and up and down hill it effortlessly maintained that speed.

Have a good trip old fella. Since you won't be in Katherine, send some warm weather down here.
Griggy bought a Tvan and we're heading out to sunset for a trial run thus arvo for the weekend.
