P5 Towing

Has anyone on this board, who owns a P5 ,actually towed a small utility trailer? I'm wondering if it would too much stress on the car towing a small trailer and an ATV. It maybe a silly questiion.

Owners manual says 'no towing'... but... if it was a real light trailer/load - it 'should' be okay.

I've not towed, but I have seen P5s around with some really nice hidden hitches. Check them out. I know I have seen at least 2 different ones. I don't remember the companies unfortunately. I think the one with the hidden hitch brand name is the bulkier of the 2 I have seen, but one of them really looks slick. Keep an eye out, there are probably people around where you are that have them installed on their cars.
