my 06 170 TDi quattro S-line and Specialized SX Trail II

these are Thule 532's, years old and still work great, only thing I had to do was buy longer bolts to accommodate the stupidly oversized bottom tube on the SXT
 
Nice. I'm now a roadie, unfortunately that means a Lycra whore...., but will post a pic of my steed and the car too.
 
I want to get some roof bars for my car to pop a bike rack and/or roof box on, although I was quite pleased that my road bike will slot in the back of the car without dismantling... it is a bit of faff removing my daughters car seats though.



And I wouldn't be as keen to do this with my MTB, road bikes don't seem to get dirty, fortunately!
I've gotten in to ride cycling recently but have always been into MTB's, still have a hardtail and use to ride and race DH a bit when I was younger. I really want to get another full sus, maybe a nice Alpine 160. If only I had the money... and the time to go out and ride it!
 
Nice bike DW and nice leather seats too :)

Keep on forgetting to take a pic of my bike and car together but here are them separately :)

Nice bike :icon thumright:
Mines just an ally Defy 1. Only had it since October, but I'm hankering after something a bit more special already. And by special, I mean carbon.
 
definitely wouldn't choose to put my mtb in the car, getting it (and me) filthy is half the fun :)

although I'm not a massive fan of roof mounted carriers for mtb's, heavy to get up there and the muck off the bike ends up on the roof... I'll be fitting a tow bar this weekend and using a hook mounted thule platform carrier in future
