I bought a 5 speed 2014 Ford Focus and the only thing you need to do to tow it is put the transmission in neutral. Doesn’t even need the key in the ignition as the steering does not lock. Easy peasy


Our Mini is a 2012 6-speed manual and the owners guide is quite specific that it may be flat towed. We’ve towed it over 10k miles.
