I know some of you frown heavily on the use of bike racks off the back of cars and the S211 isn't supposed to be suited to taking one but Dammit I had a perfectly good Saris Bones 3 and I wanted to use it... so I thought about it, applied engineering judgement and here it is... apparently it can...
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.
As the title says, I have a problem with storage when I drive to our cruise so I am considering using a Boot rack.
has anyone used one and does anyone know where I can get one.

I have a w201 ORIS roof rack bars and cross bars to support two bikes. Was planning on fitting it to my w210 but it doesn't with the rails I have.
Nice and solid, has 190 w201 on it, comes with one key.
Offers, Pick up HA7
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:
Wish I'd never got rid of the one from my first W211!!
Or anybody local willing to loan me one when needed (maybe 2-3 times a year) and in return I have a lockable roof box that they can use (open to anybody actually - M6 J31a Preston)
hey wondered if anyone could help i urgently need a speed sensitive steering rack for my c class not been able to drive it for 2 days and im really missing it :mad:
Not so much on eBay but in my garage.
I'm not going to own another Mercedes so I thought I'd see if you guys wanted this before I eBayed it.
I hope I could maybe get let off the 30 post count but this is the only Merc part I have and I'd rather it went to an enthusiast and not a scrap...

Hello and good evening,
I'm looking for a roof rack for my 200E (1989). It seems that they are a bit like gold dust since i haven't had any luck sofar in getting my hands on one ...
Even my trusty second hand dealer can't seem to locate one for me :confused:
Any idea where i can get one from?
Anyone use a roof rack / box on their CLK? Taking mine on a 2/3 week road trip next year and could do with the extra space.
I've looked on a lot of websites that sell roof racks by companies like Thule etc and all of them only stock items for a w208?!
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 have for sale a brand new (unopened) Etc Grand Tour 3 Bike High Rise Car Rack
that was intended to carry our bikes on the Saab.
This is a stock photo of it.. (oddly shown on a 211!!)
And the spec here:

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 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...
