Help choosing a cycle carrier for my shiny new Btwin

Hi all. Just need to ask if anyone has experience with any of these cycle carriers.

It'll be to carry mine and my 6 year old's bikes. But want the 3 cycle one for the future.
Which is best for ease of use, practicality and safety?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thx

Should've also mentioned I would prefer the High mount ones as I dont have roof racks or towbar. Also want my number plate and lights visible.

Ive looked at the halfords one myself and didnt look to bad but i think it depends on what car you have. It would have fitted mine, but in the end i went down the roof rack and bike carrier route as ive had a rear carrier fall of (cheapo one admittedly).

I have a Ford Focus so shouldn't have any trouble I think. Can't really argue of the Halfords one with the price though.

As long as there is no big plastic spoiler then you should be ok.

So you think the Halfords carrier is good value for money? I read the Mont Blanc was pretty easy to set up as well.
