Towing with a tow bar.
 
It would have to be backed on, which I have done successfully with a Porsche 944 Turbo, but I think the snout on the Frs is lower and more vulnerable. I can imagine ripping the front end off! There are some drive-shaft disconnect kits around, but none for our cars. I think it might be possible to run the motor while towing. No easy choices.

Just wondering if anyone has done this and what was the outcome?

How far does it need to be towed? If it's further than just up the street to a shop, I'd suggest you just trailer it.

Yeah, makes sense. Unfortunately a lot of RV parks are trailer hostile. If they have room, they make you drop them which is a pain. Other parks have no place for them at all.
