Accessorising the new Disco 1 (97R 300TDi ES Auto): I can get an extension for the towbar-mounted Cyclemaster (from Towsure) bike rack but think a spare-wheel mounted carrier makes sense, so the boot can still open. I like the look of Simbars, anyone have experience of these or is there a better type, for ease of use, speed of fitting as well as safety? Will only carry 2 bikes.
As I'm emptying the Volvo, I also wonder about getting a towing bar rather than tow rope. Mainly used to recover the daughters's Fiesta, I've seen a bar on eBay with a regular towing hitch at one end, looks more reassuring than waiting for the little car to plough into me! I know Halfords do a towing bar but again, suggestions are welcome.
