The standard Land Rover hitch issues below;
Difficult to remove, especially if the locking mechanism seizes or fills up with mud or foreign matter.
You're unable to remove the spare wheel with the standard Land Rover tow attachment fitted (Discovery 3 and RRS Only), can you imagine what it's like to remove the tow attachment if you've got a 3500kg van on the back and you're not on flat ground?
Trailer/Caravan may not tow level with the vehicle without the use of additional equipment which adds cost and weight and complications to the whole assembly.
Hangs too low, especially when off road. Has been known to fail, we have photographic evidence to show where the standard hitches have failed, probably subjected to excessive or repeated impacts.
Not adequately rated for offroad.
We knew about these issues when we set out to design a solution for the "Plough". The Mitch Hitch cures these issues.
