Mondeo Zetec TDCI TowBar 1200?

[rx2_2]

Hi,

I have just bought a Mondeo Zetec MB 2010 TDCI hatch and I am wanting to fit a towbar for our bike rack. I am a little confused from the Ford website as to whether I need to fit the 1600KG towbar because it's a diesel, or whether I can fit the 1200KG which is indicated for petrol?

I phoned our local dealership and it appears they are a little confused also, but recommended that I go with the 1600KG. I am only going to use the towbar for our bike rack, so a 1200KG would be more than ample.

Does anyone know, officially, whether I can use the 1200KG towbar on my car, or do I need to get the 1600KG one which also comes with a load leveller!

Thanks in advance

Rob
