Jag XJ - Bike Rack Jag XJ X351 - Richard wall
Hi all is there anyone out there who has put a bike rack on the back of the XJ to transport 2 bikes. I know you can’t used a tow bar can’t put anything on the roof due to the glass roof. But I know there is the Sarius bones or such that strap to the boot.

Just wondering if anyone has done it or can suggest a method to carry the bikes with the Jag

Thanks All

You're correct badbusdriver. The OP asked about bike racks for the XJ X351 here:

www.honestjohn.co.uk/forum/post/index.htm?t=125875

OP: Are you saying that you can't fit a tow bar (and a towbar mounted bike rack) to this vehicle, as it's not type approved for towing?

If you can't fit a towbar and you can't fit a roof mounted rack, I think any other method would risk damaging the Jags paint or panels.
