I am interested in buying a saris bones 3 unit - to get the best of both worlds in cost and quality.

To see if it will fit my car I have been to the Saris web site but it doesn't seem to recognise a 2007 Civie type s nor does it give dealers in the U K only U S A and Canada.

Does this mean I can only get it online?

Your comments would be appreciated.

Thanks.

    I contacted Saris about a rack for my unlisted car (Hyundai Coupe). I got an email back from a Saris contact after a few days and we exchanged emails about their best rack for me after I'd sent a photo of the back of my car. I contacted them via their website.

    If your car has a plastic spoiler at the top of the hatchback then you will be limited as to which rack you can buy as most of them need straps to the top of the hatchback which would bend/break the spoiler. I think the Bones 3 (which I was also interested in) would fall into that category.

    Like a streak of lightnin' flashin' cross the sky,
    Like the swiftest arrow whizzin' from a bow,
    Like a mighty cannonball he seems to fly.
    You'll hear about him ever'where you go.
