Cycle carrier

[rpg1976]

Hi there. Has anyone found a good cycle rack for a Z4 Coupe other than BMW's own version which is £700+ including fitting?
Is the only way to do it to mount the rack on the boot or can a hitch be fitted to the car to allow a hitch-type set up?

Cheers

Check out this thread rpg.

Should find some good info on there. The Hollywood rack PawnSacrifice is using seems like a winner.

Not sure if this will fit a coupe but just seen this on eBay - £85 buy it now.

I put a tow bar on the Golf and got a 3 bike carrier to hitch on. Probably could do same for Z. Freaks me out though as I can't get over the idea of the bikes and carrier balancing on the tow ball.

There is only 1 towbar available for the Z4, from Germany cost 700 Euros.
