Bike rack options

So I've just splashed out on my G30 with cream leather seats. The last thing I want is my roadie or MTB in the back. Even worse, I have my son's child seat to contend with.

So what are my best options for transporting my bikes (one at a time)?

I don't have a towbar so I just whack them on the roof. I'm using 3 x Thule ProRide 591 and 1X Thule OutRide + Thule Wheel Carrier (for clamping front forks, if you have a carbon bike). The only bike that doesn't go on top is the Brompton.

Works well for me.

Check out the Stealth Hitch (for use with a bicycle rack). The hitch is not visible unless you are using it.
