For two people a well kitted out Transporter is a better bet than a full estate with shit on the roof. They are absolutely roomy enough for two people, two bikes and their gear. And like you say you can park them up anywhere without advertising your kit to the world. The only reason to go bigger would be you are carrying a crazy amount of stuff or sleeping in the van.

Friend of mine is taking a sabbatical from work and is going to live in the French Pyrenees for four months next summer. He's going to drive down with his girlfriend and everything he needs, including two bikes. He was planning on getting something like a Volvo estate - having owned such a car I reckon it'd be very tight, I'd go for something like this: https://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201810041168495?onesearchad=New&onesearchad=Nearly%20New&onesearchad=Used&model=TRANSPORTER&advertising-location=at_cars&radius=1501&make=VOLKSWAGEN&postcode=se233un&sort=sponsored&page=1
