The hooks fit well all over the hatchback door and I don’t need any extra accessories to make the bike rack work. I’m able to put a women’s bike and mountain bike, both with angled top tubes, on the rack comfortably. There is nothing to prevent the front wheels from turning so you’ll need at least one bungee cord for the bike that’s closest to the car.

I imagine that this will fit any MINI Cooper from 2002 and on, with the top arm touching the rear windshield glass. I keep a towel on each of the lower arms so they won’t scratch the paint but I’m not sure if it’s necessary. Be careful though, you cannot open the MINI hatch with the bike rack on! The two hooks near the top hinge of the hatch door will get pinched and you will damage your car.

The only downside of this rack is that it looks nice and I feel like I need to lock it to my spoiler in case of theft. Otherwise, it’s a very solid product and worth the extra money.
