I want to put a bike rack on a tow ball on my Disco 3, if I don't intend to ever pull a trailer do I need to pay to have the electrics put in? Any suggestions on where to get a reasonable priced tow ball and also the best bike rack.

If you're going for a tow ball bike rack, you'll probably need one with a light bar as the bikes will cover the reg plate when you've got the bikes on it.
Have a look on the bay for tow bars and electrics. Lee

Been very happy with this carrier:

Genuine tow electrics available from TLO for a reasonable price. Very easy to fit on your own, and instructions are included. (A small pair of hands may help). I use a light board with the carrier, although some carriers have them built in. This carrier is more compact than those and doesn't interfere with your ground clearance if that's an issue taking bikes off-road, etc. PAGODA
