Lads, can you recommend a bike rack for me please, I have an E46 touring. I'm not after anything too fancy, I don't have a tow bor and it would be for two bikes.

Thanks

Anything up to £100 I guess, is that enough?

Can you not put them inside the car? E46 touring should have loads of space!

The problem I have is that most racks don't fit my car - I bought a Hollywood one and it didn't fit, yet is went on perfectly on a friends Impreza wagon.

Do you have roof rails?

If so you need the cross bars (e.g. these http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/THULE-755-757-RAPID-SYSTEM-R...


If you don't have the roof rails just wait for some genuine BMW bars to come up on ebay for about £50 - these fit into the mountings on the roof gutter. I did this for my e46 coupe.

Then you need some carriers (I have a pair of these at £65: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Thule-2-FreeRide-530-Roof-Mo...
