I have a c350e Sport estate with standard 17 inch wheels.

I'm really struggling to get a definitive answer from my local dealer regarding whether I can have a towbar fitted. MB appear to fit 18 inch wheels when fitting a towbar but this would be too expensive.

Anyone had any experience of this?

Cheers

Jon

Hello and welcome

Your vin plate will have some numbers on it. If it is type approved for towing it will be shown on the plate. If no numbers you can’t tow.

See below.
