Sometimes, in one's travels, one is sent on a quest for a shrubbery. Or at least that is what I learned from watching a documentary on the Holy Grail. If such a situation arises, it is best to be prepared
A shrubberry?
You know Google Dave? I didn't know the word either, but "googled" it, Thats exactly the sort of bush I got out at my son's place!
It has been discussed before , but the winch will be heavy and awkward to store. The loadspace in the back is high and you have to reach across the bumper/sill a fair way. Let alone in a recovery where you have to open both doors to get the device out and fitted , perhaps on a side angle or in mud.

I use this style on my 4wds usually kept inside and only inserted when needed.
In the movie the first time someone asks for a shrubbery the response is "a shrubbery??"You know Google Dave? I didn't know the word either, but "googled" it, Thats exactly the sort of bush I got out at my son's place!
Yep, when my nice shiny new Grenadier arrives with integrated winch it’s up for sale if any wants the big heavy piece of crap. (It’s not a Tirfor brand one but same deal)Gumtree is your friend then
A true heirloom tool. That almost makes it special in it's own right.
Where you given it, or did you buy it?
A mate was getting rid of it and sold it to me pretty cheaply
If you've no requirement to tow (and I share your comment with regard to the portable winche's compatability with a tow ball) then I'd hope just buying the lump of metal which I've seen described as the "Vertical Towing Interface" would be much cheaper than purchasing the towing kit at some £600ish.
That really needs to be demonstrated to be believed.
Full type approval for cars, or just legal for commercials with their own "lower" standard?
One for our forum sales page then ~ although you may need to work on the sales pitch.
What is your use case for the vehicle? That will give you the answer.
remember, just the winch is not enough. if you really need them, then you also need ropes, shackles, maybe a pulley, and depending on the location, a ground anchor.
