Okay,
So this is advice for a friend who has a 2008 Honda S2000. He needs a tow bar for a trailer and maybe a mobile home. His a stubborn individual and he will not get a second car, he only wants to use his s2000 to tow.
I've tried looking up nose load weights for the s2000 and it isn't clearly defined. Is there a special 'sports' tow bar that can be purchased for the s2000?

I have looked on general tow bar sites such as that and none have a tow bar for the s2000.0 -
Pretty sure it isn't homologated for towing - I guess the handbook is the place to confirm this though.0

The owners handbook says:
"Your Honda is not designed to tow a trailer. Attempting to install a trailer hitch on your Honda can cause serious damage to its undercarriage."
But... If he insists (despite the fact that it may invalidate any insurance) this thread on S2KI has details from some people who have done it.
SPCome on people, it's not difficult: lose means to be unable to find, loose means not being fixed in place. So if you have a hole in your pocket you might lose your loose change.0 -

He wants to tow a mobile home with a sports car?
He'll need an Audi to do that.0 -
Yes you can tow it.
No it's not ideal.
Good luck with the diff.
It's up to him if he doesn't want to use a better suited vehicle.0 -

Simon Norris would beg to differ.0 -
Does he also want to fasten a removable rear seat on the boot lid because he doesn't want a four seater?
Towing needs a two car, the S2000 isn't a tow car.0 -
Plenty tow a half tonne of wheels and tyres in their S2000's.
Brakes are up to it, has a bit of poke (eventually), will do the job.
How well and for how long are the issues.0 -
