anyone have a tow hitch for 05 MCS and\or tow bar

looking for a tow bar for 59 mini. Mini minia used to have a really neat tow bar that picked up the front end about 2 " but no more. Also need hitch for 05 MCS. Since Blue Ox went out of business can't seem to find one. Both the 59 and 05 are same chili red with full union jack roofs, thought it would be great to hook up both and pull to meets and shows.

Buy 'hitch' i assume you mean 'tow bar' to us on the other side of the pond. A friend of mine enquired with her local BMW/MINI centre about a tow bar for her MCS and was told it wasn't possible, think it was something to do with the central exhaust?

Just bought a hitch from a guy that mkes them [he's in Akron OH] Attaches w/ 8 bolts to the frame -- very strong!!
Best part -- it cannot be seen at all when not in use. Pretty reasonable [$340.00 plus wiring modulator-- $40.00]
