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

Available from Demon Thieves and other accessory shops.
You can get fixed length ones or adjustable length ones.

Can you work a sewing machine, or would it be the missus? If so, that'd make it at least £5 for a satisfactory bottle of wine to bribe her surely??? :D :D

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. :wink:
