Bit of a long shot...bought a towbar on ebay...guy said it was for a Mk4 Atstra hatchback 98-04...turns out its off an estate model 98-04 now that I have looked into it,
Any of you guys any idea if I can make it fit...not had a look yet...but I do know its a heavy b*gger.
Nick.

I'd say a estate car will have a different shape/design chassis leg/ rear bulk head
But you may be able to modify to fit , or just try it you never know it could bolt straight on
Might have to sell it on again

It will be different... Can't remember the difference, but I have fitted to both hatchbacks/vans and estates. Have a look on here www.towbars-uk.co.uk/ |

Type approved only after August 1998. If there's any difference at all between the hatch and estate versions then it won't be type approved.
