Default OEM towbar - saloon or estate?

I picked up a detachable OEM towbar off Ebay a few weeks ago in the belief it would fit my saloon.




A bit of cleaning, paint and a couple of keys later, I am now struggling to fit it.

The issue lies around the the chassis legs / inserts:
1). the chassis rails have x2 holes, whereas the inserts have x3 bolts (only x1 of which lines up)
2). the leg inserts are welded to the main bracket in a slightly low location, meaning the x8 smaller face bolts don't align with the captive nuts on the car



Have I picked up a bar for an estate in error, or am I missing something?
