Hi all,

Just a simple quick question....can you tow a Delorean?
I'm not planning to at all, but 'in the event of....' it'd be nice to know if it was safe
to do so.

I was looking underneath and can't see anything much to attach anything to...?

Cheers,
Mat
yes, there are 2 towing eye's under the front of the car, one on each side of the frame.
Be careful with the towing eyes though. They are prone to snapping off so try not to yank hard against them, keep the rope tight.
or just get the RAC or the AA to put the car on a flat bed Big Grin TT
But if you do make sure they attach the winch to something more substantial than I did (the ARB bracket) a couple of months ago Shock :oops: Big Grin
Careful if yours is an Auto though, Auto transmissions need engine power to keep the lube flowing, so you should only tow an auto very slowly and for a very short distance.
Thanks guys...

And it is a manual, so one less thing to worry about....

Thanks for the top tip...if in doubt, call the AA! 8)
