Will I be able to get one on a personal lease with a tow bar? It would only get light use i.e. take rubbish to the tip etc, no caravan towing.

Yes, but you'd pay for the full retail cost of the towbar over the period of the lease.
You may have to wait a while for a car to be built, rather than get a stock deal.

It may be more cost effective to get a car without, and retrofit, either at the Dealers or your local Towbar specialist - and then remove it before the end of the lease and put it on eBay - just be sure that there are no bumper cuts visible, or you may be liable for a replacement bumper.
Often, the towbar replaces the rear crash member, so if you retrofit, don't forget to keep this for when you remove the bar.
