Does anyone know of any bike racks that fit onto the back of the car that will reach over the wing on the back of my MY01 WRX and will hold at least 2 mountain bikes.

If so, where do I get one and how much should I expect to pay?

Cheers
Andy

i have roof racks with a Thule MTB carrier on it !

works well, except i'm limited to 120km/h.

i find it better on the roof ! at least you can open the boot !

I bought a Saris Bones cycle rack that goes over the boot, but even though it is a nice shape design it marked the boot and the spoiler (I have MY98 low-level spoiler). Personally I think roof-mounted (huh huh!) is the only way to go.

Thumbs up

Thule roof mounted - IMHO definately the way to go.

Modular system that you can take from car to car with minimal expense - locks to car & bikes easily lock to rack.

Cheapest place I found was here
