I think the issue is that even a full size (E63 say) would struggle with the sheer amount of room that two full suspension 29ers take up, they are very big bikes. As it stands the C55 is doing ok with the bikes on the roof-23.2mpg today, which isn’t as horrifying as I thought it was going to be.
However it would be nice to have the bikes inside, and to be able to leave them there when in the hotel for the night- we bought the bikes in last night and put them back on the roof this morning.
A van would be a big cost, I’ll see how I go through winter and then make a decision next spring I think.
