How to Tow a 2008 Mini Coops S with Sport Suspension Behind Motorhome
Question:
Will this fit my 2008 Mini Cooper S hardtop sport suspension? Im looking for a complete package. My coach is a Winnebago View without air brakes. Has a class 3 tow hitch 2x2 and the European six pin connector. A wireless magnetic light system would work as well. Im open to suggestions

Snice your 2008 Mini Cooper S has the Sport suspension you'll need to use a tow dolly to tow your vehicle behind your Winnebago instead of a standard flat towing setup that uses a base plate kit.
I recommend going with the Demco Kar Kaddy SS # DM9713045 because it comes with surge disc brakes and has the ability to fold which makes storage at home and the campsite much more convenient. This tow dolly comes with brake lights already and a connector for it as well. Since your RV has a 6-Way you can use the Pollak Adapter # PK12717 to plug the lights right in to your RV
You can still tie-in magnetic lights like part # C6304 as well if you'd like to use both options.
