Long shot maybe any 159 saloon owners out there that can advise how they transport their bike? Was looking at the saris bones but not listed as compatible on saris website. Want to avoid roofbars or towbar option.
Cheers folks

Anyone or anything here help?
Ps nice car, what engine?
I knew I had seen a thread previously but when searched could not find it. Unfortunately nothing in there that helps but thanks all the same. It's a 1.9 jtdm in the ti spec very nice but starting to doubt it was the most sensible option! Still nobody buys alfa with their heads right? Well maybe they do these days?!
Anyway still need a bit of guidance on this one ......
Expensive option (but probbly the best) is to fit a tow bar and stick a rack on that 🙂
Ask on the Alfaowner 159 section if people have a bike rack that fits or pm/email the guy on here who said he had the saloon in the above thread?
I had a Alfa 156 and couldn't bring myself to put roof bars onto it ruining the lines 🙂 . I happily used a rear boot mounted bike rack with no issues at all, only it became a little tedious having to mount it every time i wanted to ride but i became a dab hand at doing it in less than 5 mins.
I have nothing to add other than the fact that I want one...
I had a 156. wheels in boot, frames upside down wrapped in an old curtain on the back seat. works for up to 2 bikes.
I'd like a 159 sportwagon
