For a trunk mounted bike rack for your 2005 Mini Cooper Convertible your best option would be the Hollywood Racks Expedition part # HRF6-2 that you referenced. This has been confirmed as a fit for your vehicle and would work well.
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.
