...and a removable tow ball :lol: :lol:

Very neat MK Chris, was super tidy under the bonnet. Lot's more room under there than in the ML/MNs.

Hey there ChriIiS 05 , Nice looking rig there mate, looks like a bit of a beast there. The black rims look great on all these tritons and yours is no exception. Hope you get to use it as much as possible
