Been to my local shop, he can order any but doesn't stock as he can't compete with the big chain retailers, but his advice is to look only at Thule / Pendle or Saris, forget the rest...

Anyway, I've got a strange insert under the bumper type tow-bar and would prefer this type to a rack style, just wondered if anyone has a similar car or towbar and would point me in the right direction....?

    Your retailer is correct!

    Thule do a very good towbar mounted rack

    Hey there, I have the Thule 3 bike carrier, towhitch mounted, very easy to use. We have been down to France a few times with the bikes on the back with no problems. I use the cycle carrier on my 5 series but I imagine there is not alot of difference in the mounting. Hope this helps a bit.
