Front towing eye (WHY?)
What are the permanant options for use on track?
I've seen some saxo's on here with is it a clio style one?
Are they still available?
Another option would be a TRS strap like i have on the rear on my 106.

It sticks out a bit much to be left in all the time, i'd prefer one with a ring that hangs down.

It don't stick out to far till its dark one night and you walk in-between the Saxo front and the back of another car and 'TWAT' followed by "mother f*cking, c*nting, b*st*rd, F*CK" as you hit you're shin on it.
Swear it hurts more than hitting you're shin on a tow bar.
I'll see if Si's any further along with his tow eye for the Saxo

What about measuring from the back of the ring to the bumper then turning the back down rethreading so the ring is a lot closer to the bumper

they do them all. We have the hanging tow hooks on the site. The others are a bit too much of a shin destroyer so have not made it a priority to list them..
