       Hi,

           I intend to purchase a bike rack for my Freelander, I'm not too keen on using the roof, has anybody used the towbar bolt on Witter ZX108 model? If so could it carry 3 adult sized bikes? Are there any other suitable bike racks which can be used whilst towing?  I was most impressed with the witter one I had for my last car which was a hatchback. Any advice would be appreciated, thanks.

 be careful if you intend on one on the tow bar as this will increase the tow hitch weight, but more to the point it will make getting into the rear of the car very difficult, near impossible so therfore i would advise that the best place to put the bikes is inside your caravan over the axle but make sure they dont move

We have a spare  wheel bike carrier for our Freelander but it only holds 2 bikes not the 3.  It fits on the spare wheel and is good.  I bought it off ebay.
