Boot Mount cycle carrier, any recomendations?
Discussion
I am getting fed up of putting my bike in and out of the boot of my car as although it fits ok, it ends up with a certain amount of mud and dirt getting dragged in. So can any one recomend a good boot mounted bike rack, I've looked on-line at the Saris Solo but it seems to have mixed reviews, the carrier only needs to hold one bike.
So any recomendations or ones to avoid, the car in question is a PT Cruiser, tow bar fitment is out as thanks to me choosing something rare (/unpopular).

There's quite a selection here http://www.roofrackshop.co.uk/Car-Products/Bike-Ra...
I have a Paddy Hopkirk rear rack that is now the best part of 15 years old and has served me well through that time, but I don't think they make then any more.
As mentioned the Saris Bones http://www.evanscycles.com/products/saris/bones-3-... is highly thought of if expensive. Look for the youtube video's of it, it looks very simple to use.
ETA: as your looking to carry just one bike the Saris Solo is very reasonable http://www.evanscycles.com/products/saris/bones-so...
