Just swapped out my ml for a new one. I have a thule bike rack for the old model (164) that clips on the rear door. Unfortunately it wont fit the new one due to the rear spoiler. Does anyone have a new ML and what bike rack have you fitted? Thanks, J.

Hi Guys, Just wanted to let you know that I am taking part in a Charity Cycle ride over 50 miles next Sunday June 23rd. The event is the Great Notts Bike Ride. I am doing it as part of a team of 6 (although there will be approximately 4000 cyclists taking part) and we are raising money for two...

I need to carry 2 mountain bikes using my W211, never done this before so thought id ask on here, do i go for roof mount or rear boot mount? Will be using it occasionally so easy removal is preferred. I haven't got roof bars either! Need to start shaping up for coming holiday:doh:

Anyone know anything about them? Without having to change anything else, will a 26" rear wheel with 8 gears work on a bike with a 26" rear wheel which has 6 gears? TIA.

Just acquired some genuine MB roof bars for my 219 CLS. I'm now after the bike carrier thing that you can attach to the bars - I think they fit to any MB model from about 2006 with the roof bars installed. MB Milton Keynes shop list these for £102 each, but if anyone has one lurking around...

Could you please recommend any reliable, and easy to use rack for estate version?

I have two Atera Giro bike racks for sale as pictured. I have now sold the bars. I understand they also fit Thule and probably other Aero type bars. They are in decent condition and are excellent quality. They are an OEM German manufacturer making bars for many major car manufacturers and I...

Anyone know of any Insurers who'll take into consideration ncb from a Car policy? I'm looking to get another Bike after an 18 year lay off and obviously have Zero NCB on a Bike. Despite having a clean licence and a claim free record my best quote is £680 Fully Comp, worst quote is a...

Ok, so I'm trying to reduce the flab, so I'm looking for a rear mounted bike rack for the car. I've had roof racks in the past, but they've always been a pain to lift the bike onto the roof and get it secure at the same time (not enough hands). So, I'm trying to track down a rear mounted rack...

I'm looking for recommendations for a tail gate mounted bike rack for my W203 estate. I don't have a tow bar, or want to mount on the roof. 2-3 bikes max (2 of them children's). It would also be useful if the carrier could be fitted to my wife's Golf Mk VI 5 door. Not many options...

Anyone care to recommend a bike rack (roof or boot mounted) for the CLS? Thule (which most of my friends seem to have on their VW/Audis) sell them for just about every Mercedes except the W219 CLS. I only need to carry a maximum of 2 mountain bikes. I do have a generic Halfords-stylie...

I am after a 'new' bike for my eldest daughter and am looking for a reasonably light second hand hybrid with rapid shifters, ie one which doesn't have grip-shift gear changers. Is anyone selling one or know someone that is that they can put me in touch with? I am in SW London and am looking...

I have a few plans to go biking up north and maybe in europe as well. I'll be taking my W124 saloon, only problem is I don't know what bike rack or carrier system to go for. We have 3 mountain bikes, and it would be nice to have a carrier system which can hold all 3 on the roof. Thule seems to...

Hi I am due to try a new hybrid bike for size later in the week. I tried a few stock bikes last week and the shop say that I am on the border between a medium and a large. From those in the know is it better to go for the medium and have the saddle higher, or the large and have the saddle at...

Hi I am getting a new bike on the cycle to work scheme, I have picked the below bike in a bit of a hurry, but can still change my mind if I have to. But if I want to go ahead tomorrow to get the better pricing, is this bike a good choice or should I change to something else? Specialized...

Unfortunately my son had an accident yesterday on his motorbike caused by pedestrians walking out on a pelican crossing when the traffic was green. No injuries, just a scrapped bike when he slid to a stop. The pedestrians didn't even stop to see if he was ok, they just kept walking! Just a bad...
