I think time to target a forum rather than continuing in the new members bit, very welcome though, thanks. As I am going down the register the van process here in France I didn’t fancy doing the car as well so bought a French one yesterday. Well - Swedish but French registered. The dealer will fit a Towbar but I’d just like to check - I’m sure there is an EU standard pin out that I don’t have to worry about being compatible. Van is a 2020 Bailey.
On another point having a google today I saw a mention about detachable tow bars being mandatory in France and it’s illegal to drive with one when not towing? If so I’ve been lucky so far and will whip it off in the morning!

13pin is standard EXCEPT that pins 10 and 11 for the fridge are often not fitted in the EU. Pins 9 and 13 (12V to van) are also sometimes missing. Just write it down on the job sheet and sign it and it becomes contractual.
