Car Racks...

[nappadang]

I need a car rack before next weekend and don't really fancy paying more than about £80 if I can get away with it.
I had a quick nose on Evans Cycles website where I came across the Saris Bike Porter- 2 bike car rack. I was wondering if a) this would fit on a Skoda Octavia (saloon) and b) whether it is any good?
I'd really appreciate help here. If anyone has an Octavia and can recommend an alternative in the same price bracket or cheaper that'd be great too.

thanks in advance,


Mick

Do you have a tow bar? If so, this one is the business. I have it and it's so easy to fit and store when not in use:

No, no tow bar, unfortunately. Thanks for the reply.

Make sure you get one where the bikes don't obscure your number plate and lights. You see so many people driving around with bikes obscuring their lights - they've obviously not thought about the fact that no insurance company will pay up if they get rear ended.
