If I'm on my own, I generally remove the front wheel and lob it in the back of my sheddy V50 with little disregard for the interior. It'll clean.

If it's me and the child or all of us, two adult bikes on the roof bars and child's in the boot minus the front wheel. Roof bars are now are permanent addition - zero effect on MPG that I've noticed and wind noise is usually drowned out by the kids bickering / demands for pee stops and if I'm on my own, it's usually 90's dance classics at high volume whilst desperately trying to cling in to my yoof...

Picking this up shortly, new to me load lugger 119CDi Tourer select take the back row of seats out and get 4 ebikes in there



If this is an auto look at the double cup holders from merc that go in gap above storage bin in location of manual stick. Cost me about 70 quid and made a right difference

My 'semi-rat' abused workhorse, not prime PH material but I like it laugh



The Fives sold on now frown Replaced by a Privateer that just squeezes in the back amongst the work gear, after a LWB Caddy or SWB Custom/T5 ect next but van prices are silly.

Mine isn't very innovative, you can't even tell there is a bike rack on the back from this angle. hehe

This is what I got, its not very cool but drives ok for a van, does reasonable mpg's and has came in handy more than once for house DIY, its a Mk2 Dispatch 9 seater, removed rear 3 seats, built a sliding pull out shelf and currently can get 2 enduro ebikes and a kids bike, will need readjusting in the future to fit bigger kids bike and another kids bike once my youngest is coming with us, bike wise though mostly its me and a mate traveling to go different places, Gisburn last week which I really enjoyed.

Mondeo and Santa Cruz now gone.

Vitus E Sommet VRS is the new steed, that I am yet to squeeze into the back of my 130I. Not looking forward to it, heavy bike, small boot opening.

Not the easiest, getting a heavy EMTB into the back of a 1 series, but it does fit, with both wheels off.

They really are a reverse tardis. My Abarth really is similar to my old 120D

Yes. My old 120i is probably way back in this tread, but has since been replaced by a VW Transporter, as I was fed up with the lack of storage.
