Mercedes C Class Estate S204 2007-2014 Westfalia Detachable Towbar (AMG & Standard Bumper)
Hi . I have a 10/2011 C350CDI sport estate (not AMG) I'm looking at purchasing a detachable towbar & want to know which bumper cut is less visable between the westfailia, witter & PF Jones bars. & which ones have fixed or swivel electrics plate.
Also is the pfjones bar compatible with any cycle carriers?
Thanks in advance

Hello Andrew, The bumper cut on the Westfalia 313438 for Mercedes C class estate is visible and measures 426mm x 105mm. The Witter MR44Q has a non-visible cut of 350mm x 70mm. Both towbars have swivel up electrics. Our PFJones detachable swan neck towbar will take any cycle carrier that clamps onto the ball, even ones that say 'requires an ALKO style towbar'. Thank you.
Hi , regarding your reply, I'm thinking of purchasing the PF Jones detachable towbar for my 350CDI sport estate. As the instructions say "Sport bumper models only. Cut bumper as
detailed, noting that if a flip up electrical plate is not required, the bumper cut can be reduced as necessary" , Dose this product come with a FIXED electric plate. Thanks in advance

Hi, Matthew, based on the Westfalia towbar, on the Sport model the bumper would need cutting 105mm from the underneath edge of the bumper to the back and 426mm wide.
The dedicated wiring kit you would need is part number 313361300113
This Witter towbar would require less of a cut than the Westfalia on the sport bumpers. (Not visible)

I am looking for a detachable towbar for a 2013 Merc C250 AMG Sport estate and favour the Westfalia model. Can you please tell me what is the difference between the 313438 and 313439 versions? The sketches in the fitting instructions suggest one has a longer neck than the other. Which would be suitable?
Cheers
Bob

Hi Bob
The 313439 will only fit vehicles with height control you will need 313438 if your vehicle does not have height control
