Discovery 2 Towing Package with Fitting

Towing Package with Fitting for the Discovery 2: a type approved towbar, vehicle specific electrics with coding where needed, and a drop plate for mixed trailers.

Fleet and trade packages are for farms, estates, utilities, hire firms and independent workshops running several of these vehicles. One order, one invoice, one delivery, trade pricing built in and a named contact who knows the vehicles rather than a queue. The Discovery 2 is the Td5 era, with self levelling rear air on some cars and ACE active roll control on others, and both matter when you order suspension.

Fitting

Labour guide: about 4 hours, included. Land Rover changes specification mid production, often by VIN rather than by model year, so send the VIN or the registration with the order and we confirm the part against the build data before anything leaves. It takes two minutes and it is the difference between a part that fits and a return. We are an independent Land Rover specialist and parts supplier. We are not Land Rover or Jaguar Land Rover and are not appointed by them; the model names are their trademarks and are used here to describe fitment. Everything we sell is chosen for vehicles that actually get used: towed with, loaded, driven through water and parked in fields, rather than for the brochure.

Which version to buy

Standard is the standard specification, which is what most vehicles need and what we would quote unless you told us otherwise. There is one specification of this, because it is the one we would fit to our own vehicles and a cheaper version would not be doing you a favour.
