MrsK wants to carry mountain bikes on her Evoque.
Roof bars are a non-starter, so looking for a 3-bike Thule Carrier - Towbar Mount We really one that has the ability to hinge (looking at the site there are different versions), so she can access to boot without major de-racking, Looking at the Gumtree and Halfrauds, the Thule 9403 is about £155 new, and change hands for about £90 second hand (in mint condition) If you have one for sale, open to offers 
I travel round Scotland and Northern England frequently for collection. Cheers Defender "Puma" 2.4 110 County Utility (possibly the last of the 2.4's) |

Here you go Martin. It could do with a couple of rubber straps (they were missing when I bought it). Apart from that it's in good nick. Gimme a shout if you're interested. There's also a spacer for the tow ball that I'll chuck in with it

Can you use that Thule rack on a Defender? Doesn't the spare wheel foul the first bike on the rack?

Don't think these will fit a Defender easily because of the spare wheel. You would need a spacer... Defender "Puma" 2.4 110 County Utility (possibly the last of the 2.4's)

I think its only the Pendle that works with the Defender.
http://www.pendle-bike.co.uk/shopping/Whee...e-Rack.php If there is a cheaper tow bar mounted solution that carries the bike by the wheels rather than 'hanging' on the frame i'd be interested too. |

On my previous cars I've used this,
Its great, very easy to fit, locks on and folds down allowing you access to boot. I thought on the defender you can just get a longer bar to push it out beyond the spare? Otherwise this is not going to fit my Defender
