Fitment questions
Can I get a towbar for my Volkswagen Taro?
The Volkswagen Taro was a compact pickup truck sold in the UK during the late 1980s and 1990s, essentially a rebadged Toyota Hilux, and towbars were absolutely a genuine factory and aftermarket fitment on this model given its pickup and light commercial nature. Used towbars do come up through breakers, so it is worth requesting quotes through Findapart.
Will a towbar from an early Volkswagen Taro fit a later one?
The Taro was produced broadly across a single generation covering the late 1980s through to the mid-1990s, but there were running changes during that period that could affect towbar mounting points on the chassis. Because the Taro shares its platform with the Toyota Hilux of the same era, mid-run pressing or chassis changes are possible and you should confirm the exact year of both the donor and your vehicle with the breaker against your registration before buying.
Does the towbar differ between single cab and double cab Taro models?
Body style is the most important factor here, and the single cab and double cab variants have different rear body and chassis configurations, which is very likely to affect how a towbar mounts and whether it will fit your vehicle. Always specify whether your Taro is a single cab or double cab when requesting a quote from a breaker.
Does the engine or trim level affect which towbar I need for my Taro?
No, engine size and trim level do not affect towbar fitment on the Taro — the mounting is determined by the chassis and body style, not what is under the bonnet or what level of specification the vehicle has. Focus your enquiry on the body style (single cab or double cab) and the year of the vehicle.
The Taro is basically a Toyota Hilux — can I use a Hilux towbar on my Taro?
Because the Volkswagen Taro was built on the Toyota Hilux platform and is mechanically very closely related, there is a reasonable possibility of compatibility, but panel and chassis pressing differences between the VW-badged and Toyota-badged versions of the same platform cannot be confirmed as fact here. You should confirm directly with the breaker, providing both registrations or chassis numbers, before purchasing a Hilux towbar for a Taro or vice versa.
Where is the best place to find a used towbar for a Volkswagen Taro in the UK?
The Taro is a relatively rare vehicle in the UK, so a used towbar may take some searching — Findapart lets you request quotes from multiple breakers at once, which improves your chances of locating one. When submitting your request, make sure to specify your cab style and year so breakers can check they have the right fitment for your vehicle.
