Just one further comment, I have asked Ineos today for their view on me fitting the Dixon Bate adjustable drop plate and await their response. There was no option for me apart from fitting this kit to allow me to tow the trailer that required a lower tow ball position.

Chain slap, stops the chains from wearing the paint away also the mortise lock handles are notorious for coming apart.

@DCPU ... Wonderland are a brand of Australian luxury/bespoke caravans ... are you just trawling Faceache/Twatter/TikTokTak/Instagroan and OnlyFans looking for pictures and then posting them on here ? or are you getting sent these so you can promote their (and others) business ??

It's meant to cope well in water.

Out and about again! This is one hell of a tow wagon. Handles the weight incredibly

Yeah even though I'm on larger tires. I've found with the nose weight on the hitch, the trailer sits nicely level.

It is a pleasure to tow with, handles the weight better than my previous TDV8 range rover sport, which seeing as it's solid axle and coils, is pretty amazing.

Squat is pretty minimal, the spring rate is compliant enough to soak up bumps, but not too hard as to be skipping and jumping about.

Did you need a drop plate to lower the tow ball?
