Hi, I've just taken delivery of a 1.6 TGDi 230ps Hybrid Ultimate in Sunset Red Pearl with Moss Grey Leather interior. Very impressed with it, feels like a very high quality and luxurious car. I have it on personal contract hire in lieu of a company car and got it through a leasing company. Ordered it mid-June, was told it would be delivered in October. Then I was called to say there was a problem and the order was somehow missed by Hyundai, so put back another few months so not very happy! Then a day later I get a call saying they've had a cancelled order and exactly the same model and spec was available, but a different colour (I originally ordered Shimmering Silver), but it had to be registered by end of July!! So very lucky to have only waited 6 weeks! At the moment only done 120 miles, but very happy so far - a great car! Also, prefer the colour now I've got it!!
I'll probably want to get a towbar fitted so anyone got any hints and tips on what's best to go for, or any problems encountered? Thanks in advance.

I had a towbar fitted by these people https://www.towing.co.uk/

Seems OK. I went with a detachable one with a 13 pin socket. The only "Issue" is that you have to manually turn off the reversing sensors when towing. But that's not hard to do.

I own a 2022 Ultimate Hybrid with Tech Pack - in Red (best colour).
Also have two motorcycles. Honda CB1300 and Honda CBF1000 (also red, of course).

Hi
I am also waiting for Tucson via PCH.
Just wondered how you got on with the towbar? Did you need to notify the lease company beforehand and will it need to be removed when the car is returned?
