Try to get the distance from mount hole centre to ball centre as short as possible. Personally I'm going with a solid aluminium bar hitch and greaseless ball from the US. Will re-drill it to shorten as much as possible.

I just got mine from ISP for $100, the brand was ARK. It is rated at 3.5 ton and came in it's own carry case. They come in 2 sizes.
I got the shorter one, Nice and short.

I also have a couple mate to stop trailer coupling hitting the car.

Very very nice, awesome car, but get it dirty, we got ours out and dirty on its second day...absolutely brilliant.

With the hitch,I assume you're talking about the tongue,I got a Hayman Reese from ARB including ball for $110.00, so was happy with that.

The rubber floor mats, are they the LR ones that lock onto the floor? If so they're very effective

Enjoy your car!!

It's funny what they tell you. I was told they were throwing in a tow kit. I said I didn't tow, they said no you need one so we'll throw it in. I said thanks but whatever. I did ask for mats and they said no worries. Kinda makes me think I should have haggled. It sounds to me Andy like you got a good deal on price.

I got the matts,tow pack,and mat for rear area all thrown in,and the deal was thousands less than any price i got up here.
The matts are very good,but i have not used the tow pack.

But i would have prefered the extra warranty......instead.

Andy,had a look,she hasn't disappeared during the night?

Congratulations Andy! Great looking car! It'll be sure to serve you well.

I placed a deposit on a new D4 yesterday also, very similar to yours but without the zenon headlights but including an e-diff and a few other dealer goodies. It's in Sydney so can't wait to get it in about 3 weeks.

Have fun playing with all of the new buttons!!!

Cheers,
