Colleague at work was asking me about bike racks. Him & his Mrs have 2 hybrids they want to carry on their 07 (ish) Golf, He doesn't have a towbar & was asking about rear (hatch) mounted ones but do they still mark the paintwork or has someone invented an idea that doesn't?
Roof rack maybe?
Been around for quite some time, you must of seen them.

Thule for the win for me
Durrr with a capital D! I was looking on that site 2 weeks ago for some spares for my roof bars!
I must be going sealion in my old age.
Saris bones
But check what type of bikes. Worked great for my HT but not FS
2mins to fit and great to use
Ta THM, I've sent him the link that James put up.
I have a complete set for a Mk7 golf foot pack aero bars and 2 591 carriers bought from Roof Box Kendal based and willing to sell!
Rich, I'll see if he's in tomorrow & let you know if he's interested then give you his details, if thats ok?
holy thread resurection!
Just got a mkVI Golf hatch and I'm weighing up my options. I'd prefer to go down the towbar route but this might prove a little costly for the 5 or 6 bike trips a year it's likely to get used for.
If I use a Saris - do i need any extra wiring for a lighting board?
Thule Clip On High back window mount as opposed to one with straps that need tensioning, they usually come loose.... Less affected by crosswinds than roof mount ones.
Protect car paint with foliatec stick on plastic.
Just check the auto rear window wipe in reverse gear.
