Hi all.
I'm after some advice on what bike rack to get for my car, we have 2 adult sized bikes and a bmx. Was just wondering on what type of bike rack to get for a Volkswagen UP. There is no tow bar on the back of the car

Either get a tow bar fitted and go for a rear carrier or go with a roof rack and get individual bike carriers for each bike.
For the roof I like the Thule 598

Isn't the boot mostly 'glass' - a boot mount rack is probably not a good idea.

Tow bar mount or roof - but be aware that's quite a loading for a little 'Up'. I personally prefer roof racks, but I'm using it on a largish saloon car.

The Allen Sports Premier AR200 is one of the best bike racks compatible for all cars. It provides an ideal way to safely transport bikes in a convenient way. It has a lighter, less bulky feel and doesn’t pose the storage space problem that other tray racks do. Heading out for a nice trail ride on your bike is a great way to spend the day, but depending on your space, you might have a hard time finding where to put your bike.
