Customer turned up for a service today with a Cannondale strapped to the roof of his 911......not something you see everyday !

Not me ! I'll be coming from the other end past Mosses Gate on a blue Spec Rockhopper with slicks,panniers wearing t-shirt and baggy shorts !
Had to take a pic beause in the 5 years i have worked there i have never seen ANY Porsche with a bike on top.

Gotta Love the Germans, actually designing the 911 with roof bar mounts!!!

I remember seeing some Porsche MTBs at the Birmingham motor show once, don't suppose they lasted long. BMW tried the same thing recently too.

Very true about the Germans,they think of everything ! I never saw the Porsche bikes but i do have a Porsche roof box and three cycle carriers for my VW !!!

I've got the bike, all I need now is the car to go with it.

I've always driven shitters so the problem of a dirty mountain bike shedding all over my car has never bothered me -

I have an image of that guy getting back to the car park after a muddy ride - and having a major Doh! moment.

I used to hang my racing bikes off the back of my sports car when I lived in Switzerland and Italy - clearly a roof rack's not a goer with a rag top.

Judging by the attention I got in Italy, I was clearly some sort of fantasy figure for Italian men - curvy blonde woman in a (top down) sports car with nice bike on the back.

If your rich and like old men, then you could be perfect

Trophy bike for a trophy car. Why on earth do people want to display their bikes like that? Mine get dismantled and hidden inside the car, away from theft, damage and road salt.

I doubt you could fit that bugger in a 911 even if you took the forks off

911's are not known for there practical'ness ! To be honest the Cayenne does not have a brilliant boot so the bike would end up on the roof or on a tow-bar mount.I was just impressed that someone has actually had a roof system for his 911
