Hi, anybody know which racks fit a picasso, don't want to spend a lot as I usually use my camper van which has a rack on. Also would prefer one that does'nt require a numberplate attachment.
Cheers, Steve.

    If its the people carrier Picasso, then its towbar or roof bars only. The spoiler at the top of the roof wont support the load and because the rear screen opens it cant be loaded either!
    Pretty crap really, a big family car, but cant take the kids bikes!

    It is a people carrier, but there is'nt a spoiler on the roof and the screen doesn't open, so maybe its a different model? Mines an 04

    If someone wants to write a guide I'd be happy to consider putting it in the FAQ.

    seeing as no one has done this already:
    "bike rack for a picasso"
    if i was trying to transport a picasso, i would prefer to trust it to a licensed courier service and not just stick it in the bike rack on the back of my car. what is your car by the way?!?

    bu-boom tish! :roll:

    I think Mastineo might be talking about the C4 Picasso, not the Xsara.

    My old neighbour has got a pretty decent rack on the boot of the their Picasso (she's got a pretty decent rack on the front as well :wink: ). I'll see if I can find out which 1 it is.

    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.

    Yeah sorry, should've been a bit more specific. I was talking about the C4 Grand Picasso.
