I have a bike rack recommendation I can make for your 2005 Mini Cooper, but since you have an S model Cooper there are no hitches that will fit.

Instead you would want a trunk mounted bike rack. For that I would recommend the Hollywood Racks Over-the-Top 2 Bike Carrier # HRF2. This is a great rack that has been confirmed to fit your vehicle. Check out the install video I attached.

If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Swagman Easy-Out Women's and Alternative Frame Bike Adapter # 64005 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.
