Hi, just ordered my new Lexus GS300 auto. Due to arrive in 4 to 5 weeks... Can't wait.
Got a shock today though when asked Lexus dealer about Towbar fitting.
Told me I needed a 'Towing Package' that comprises of a detachable tow ball with electrics, plus
high cooling radiator and transmission oil cooler. All for a touch under £2000 !!!!!!
I've previously had a BMW 525 and currently have a Merc 270CDi auto, both had Towbars fitted for about £350 and never needed any type of cooling at all. Never had any overheating problems in 8 years.
I've done a search of the web but can't find any towbar suppliers who do one for the new Lexus GS300.
Has anyone any experience in this area, either bought/had fitted an OEM or other make Towbar or got the Lexus one without the cooling 'accesories'.
