When I push her back in, the small amount of slack is taken up by the rounded front of the towing eye setting into the end of the box section, where it is still able to rotate if the vehicles are moving at a slight angle.
Problem solved!

Draw Bar
I moved Sandy in and out of the garage today with a new draw bar I made up with my Dad while visiting him in France. We made it from a cheap(ish) tow hitch, a small length of box section and a C-clip. It can rotate on both vertical and horizontal axes, so works at an angle and on small gradients. It fits between my Astra's front offside towing eye and the Land Rover's front nearside tow ball.
