Is a 2-bike Z4 Hitch MTB rack of any use to anyone?
I bought my Z4 in January 2013 specifically because the brochure shows it with a beautiful rear hitch cycle rack.
Previously, I was putting my MTBs in the back of My RenaultSport Megane and it was more like a skip than a car.
After taking delivery of the Z4, I asked my local dealer to fit the aforementioned rack. They told me there were none in stock in the UK or Germany, and that it would be £1700.
As luck would have it, I was heading to Florida on business that weekend, and while I was there, I purchased a Hitch bar from ExecuHitch

And a Saris Thelma 2 cycle rack.
The result is a beautiful secure way of carrying 2 bikes on my Z4, and when it's removed the car is back to pristine appearance, with no visible tow-bar or hitch.
Problem is, recently, I've started riding in a group where I often have to give 2 or 3 guys a lift. So I've bought a Volkswagen Transporter, now that it's full converted, I can also use it for sleeping in when I'm on long distance biking trips.
Spent a lot of money on the Transporter, so I'm selling the Z4 set up, if anyone is interested.
It's used, but in excellent condition. Cost around $1,000 - open to offers.
