Hi Vincent,

The answers to both those questions depend specifically on the car the towbar is being fitted to, as that determines the allowable towing weight. And the price will vary considerably depending on where you get the work done as well.

If you want us to look up the towing capability of a car please give us full details including the model year and details on the engine and transmission combination.
