Recommend a good Golf compatible cycle car rack?

<< < (3/3)

Toptrump:
Hmm will keep an eye on it next time I get to use it.  Well if I actually get it back from the ex anyway.  :happy2:

Golfgirl:
I'm after a bike rack for my car too.  I've got an old one from Halfords that goes onto the rear hatch, but unfortunately it doesn't fit a Mk 5 Golf because the clips that hook under the bootlid are too chunky and the boot won't shut.

My boyfriend enquired at the dealers (where he works) and they said that the only option from them was roof bars which I don't want. 

So I'm going to try Halfords again to see if they have a newer version of what I already have that will fit.

Halfords do a range of roof rack systems, that include bike mounting systems, that vary in price including a pretty decent Thule one. The roof racks themselves are generic, you just have to buy mountings that suit your car. The MkV has been around long enough to be supported so shouldn't be a problem. The only problem I've ever come across is that a lot of the systems don't cater for 3dr cars which is a pain.
