Just you and me by the look of things! Dunno about a picture though, I'll see what I've got, well there is this one -
 of the Rio doing what it does best and a close up -  The best way of moving a light car I've ever found, the A-frame is specifically designed to fit a 2CV with angled cups that bear against the tubular suspension arms and ratchet straps that bind them tightly in place. As long as you remember to put the key in and turn the steering lock off...  It just follows you around. (like the tailgater from hell)Any one else found what a good tow-car A Rio is? And it's only the 1.3... |

Nice Pics! My old Rio has the fittings for a tow bar, but the metal knob thing has been removed. I've often wondered what it would be like for towing. How much does the 2CV weigh? I think the limit for unbraked towing is about 300-400 kg. Do you have a system for braking the towed car?
