I have used a Vacu-rac.
These are held on with powerfull 'suckers' and take up no room when not in use.

Bad on the nerves for the first 100 miles but when you see it's still there you settle down a bit!

Fit a SEAC spoiler instead. Twice the load area and much better looking!

Jas

I have one that I used for the last couple of tiome I went to LeMans, even managed to get 2 push bikes on it, the rack is held on by a webbing strap threaded through and round the boot lid. When the bikes were on another webbing strap went round the bikes and round the whole of the car.
Looked a bit silly, but manged to cruise there and back with no issues, I've got a picture somewhere but can't remeber how to post

Cheers Paul, I remember following your wedge with Bikes in the V70 T5.
I want to take the Go-Peds and there aint enough room in the boot for the pair.

As for packing like a Girl, I usually pack the wedge with military precision. I just dont want to put 2x 50cc 2 stroke engines in the boot and have the sleeping bags and the tent, the gazebo, the pillows, our clothes etc smelling of Petrol.

I want to mount the Go-Peds to the bootlid and then secure them to the boot spoiler mounts

Well you can always borrow mine next year, or better yet may be able to fit the go peds in the WSV as hopefully it is going there next year :}
