6 series and bikes...?
Hi there, some cracking deals on uk 6 series right now. Silly point maybe but can anyone advise on if and how it's possible to mount a roof rack onto the current 6 series? Our family often take out all 4 bikes and we currently use Thule roof bars and 4xProRide 591 onto the F10 mounting points. Looking at 6 in the dealers I couldn't see those same 'flaps' to pull up for the roof bar bolts?
I'd rather not go tow bar route, so is roof possible? 6 coupe obviously not convertible Cheers.

My '12 6er coupe doesn't have the roof mounting ability like you see on the 5ers and other cars. Not really sure what to tell you. Practicality was #537 on the list of priorities when they designed this car. I assume BMW's company line for this would be to "buy an X3."

Might not be what you want, but there's a click-on bike rack original BMW accessory for the 6 series that mounts below the rear bumper in a similar way to how a trailer hitch is mounted. It takes 3 bikes iirc. Check the accessories catalog or web site.
