They all look like they could damage paintwork though

Might this be viable?

You can also buy for about £400 a cycle tow bar type arrangement but for the moment I can't remember the sellers name. Will locate and post later.

I got one of them but after one try i dont want to fit that bike rack it will definitely damage rear bumper on long journey

+1 for the Saris Bones.

I have one and have been using it for a couple of months now, 20ish miles a day with it and I've had no trouble at all. Just put some rubber (cut up inner tube seems to work) under each of the hooks to stop them scratching the paintwork and you're good to go!

I didn't fancy adding a towbar to my zed and couldn't find anything else that would do the trick.
