any 'normal' one that fits a tow bar will go on... that looks like a vertical arm thing, prob home brew???
I had a thule one, which you could 'rock' forward so as to use the hatch with the bikes still on...

I have got one of these Pendle ones, but the 4 bike version.

I have it on long term loan from my Dad, along with the tow bar fitment. We'll be testing out this weekend going to Cornwall, so I'll let you know how it goes. It used to be a treat on my Dads cars with four bikes. We'll only have the two bikes, so will leave the first slot free to allow access to the back, as thats where the LPG filler is.
