Got 2 mountain bikes that we have been putting in the back of the car but it’s a ball ache taking the front wheels off and on each time. Neither of the cars have roof rails or tow bar so I think a rear mounted carrier is the only option. I can’t even find one that seems ok for my GLC coupe so it will go on the back of a new a class.

What do people recommend? Was looking at the Saris Bones 2, but any other ideas. Thanks.

The saris bones is about the best option there is for boot mounted racks but even then it will scratch your car to some degree, and is limited if you have full suspension bikes. the only solution to avoid any car damage is really tow bar or roof bars, and if using regularly is worth the investment IMO.
