Cycle roof racks

Has anyone bought roof cycle racks for their D3?
My old ones [D2] are too narrow to fit the LR cross rails?
Also how many cycles is it possible to get across the roof - I could do to mount 4 if possible?
Ideas on make/model/source would be gratefully recieved!
Thank you for your help.

I just bought some mont blanc barracuda ones which it on the landrover bars. Have yet to try them out but they look well made. The advantage seems to be that the bike (alledgedly) will stay upright while you d the fastening.

See http://www.montblanc.se/default.asp?fla=Y

I'll let you know how I get on.

Thanksfor your help chaps
Mont Blanc are the ones to use. Easy to fit.
Apparently the LR freelander ones also fit. According to LR they dont recommend them because the bD3 is 'too high' - FFS!
