Looking for a towbar mounted cycle rack

Looking for a towbar mounted cycle rack for my Discovery 3.
Want to carry 2 kids bikes and at least 1 adult (possible 2 if I can get my wife involved!)
Can anyone let me know the rack they would recommend
Many thanks

We have a Thule model which is brilliant. Has built in lights and a tilting device which allows access into the boot area without removing it or the bikes. I think I got it from the roofbox company (www.roofbox.co.uk).

Guernsey 2016 Discovery 4 3.0 SDV6 Landmark LE Auto Santorini BlackDiscovery 4

Recently purchased Buzzrack Quattro 4

Carries 4 bikes and tilts away will need that on D3/4 half the price of Thule who do not do a dedicated 4 bike rack, will need a three with an additional carrier.

So far so good , looks and feels well made and blurb on Roofbox website would seem well founded Thumbs Up

England 2009 Discovery 3 TDV6 HSE Auto Stornoway GreyDiscovery 3

Just bought the atera from roofbox. Brilliant piece of kit. Lightweight easy to put on and am using in the tent to secure bikes on. Went via a link on here and got 10% off then another 5% before end of august promotion. £300 had it delivered next day. Slides right out way of tailgate allowing access. Really great piece of kit Thumbs Up

France 2007 Discovery 3 TDV6 HSE Auto Stornoway GreyDiscovery 3

I have an ATERA STRADA, 3 places (+1 in option).
Use it with 4 bicyles.
Excellent product, made in Germany. Cheeper that Thule and, in my opinion, easyer to use when you want something in the car.

Have a look to thoses videos :
