Hi,
Due to our MX-5 being the most practical car we own (plus I don't want to risk it on my Elise) I was wondering if anyone on here uses a boot mounted bike rack on their MX-5's, and if so have you had any issues? I only want to carry 2 fairly light mtb's.

Thanks
Paul

Yep, have a 3-bike Saris Bones one, but you can get them for two.

Yes, Hollywood F1, have one thst fits no problems and allows access to boot with no I'll effect, also doesn't block the lights i'n any way.

Gotta say - from
The opinion of someone who has sold and fitted a lot of racks - don't get a Saris. The plastic components do not last. The Saris is style over substance and used to be forever ordering i'n spare parts for people.

There's a pic somewhere I've posted before on the same subject, but I'm on my phone so can't find it. If you search for bike rack mx5 it might come up.
