Looking for a v2 tailgate bike rack (style pictured) I am back in Gloucestershire but up for a jolly somewhere within a reasonable distance.

Genuine VW T6 Matt Black Powder Coated Tailgate Bike Rack - version 1. No locking bars, I'd removed these as found them more of a nuisance than a help and not totally sure where they went! These can however be purchased separately. Also noticed one of the plastic end trims and one of the small...
