 Fit a towing strap which can be hidden behind the grill when not in use.

 Re: towing a coupe ?
I'll have you know (a)I have a 1938 electric Singer (£15 off the bay) that I was using to re-cover some Lancia seats in leather/suede until the Pikeys nicked them. And (b) a bottle of wine would get chucked right back at you - Vicky drinks vodka.
