Expert Reply:
I checked with our hitch manufacturers and unfortunately there is no hitch available for your 2008 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Sport, but we do have some other options for carrying bikes.
I recommend the Thule OutWay 2 Bike Rack, part # TH45JV. This is a great bike rack that has 2 rubber coated straps that secure it to your vehicle. This rack also comes with an integrated cable lock system that secures the bikes to the rack. This rack has a weight capacity of 66 lbs for 2 bikes and folds flat for easy storage when not in use.
If you are planning on carrying bikes with alternative frames like kids bikes or women's bikes I recommend using an adapter bar like part # 64005. This attaches between the seat post and the handlebar stem and allows the bike to be carried more level in the carrier while providing additional ground clearance. I have attached a product review video for this adapter bar.
