Possible as long as you don’t have a sport diff.
It’s an oem option.

DRC is standard in NZ, Dealer said it can be deleted if I wanted to as it rules out fitting a towbar.

It’s definitely possible. The Carbon Edition even has a pre-cut hole in the bumper for the towbar.
I can’t manage to link the post, but have a scroll down to 2nd May on here:

The bar is a little bit tight in the pre-cut hole, but we didn’t fancy trying to cut the carbon. All works perfectly.

I think people are right above though. If you want to fit a towbar, you must get a car without DRC.

I have the factory fit towbar - can confirm not possible with DRC. Happy to answer anything else on it.
