Deja Vu... just got off the phone with Nick at Mantec and he says the compatible one will be in distribution in a few weeks.
Slight modification in that it will be a bit deeper, but also shorten'd to accommodate the genuine LR load barrier.G4OC Secretary

Just received my upper lugga from Mantec mail order and fitted it.
It looks the business, certainly solidly built, weighing in at a bit below 10 kg. Those 4 self-tapper clips are sure going to get a workout!
It actually took half an hour to do what should have been a 10 minute job to fit it. The whole delay surrounded re-securing the self-tappers into the said clips. Not enough hands, not enough light, and no longer 30 years old (it's been a while) are my excuses. Seems solid enough now, time will tell.
I did note that it has two possible in-line positions for mounting the tray into the brackets, and wonder whether this is to accommodate the dog guard. I don't have a guard fitted at the moment as I'm going for a half height this time, the full height restricted long loads too much.2016 D4 Landmark SDV6 (Euro6), Zanzibar (late run D4)

How much is the loadlugga from their website? No prices on their website, unless I'm looking in the wrong place.

I've read through the thread but I can't see any mention of headroom for the 3rd row seats. They seldom get used in my car but I'd hate to render them useless with this rack fitted.

Measured today and its 33 inches from the boot floor to the underside of the rack. That's almost the same as the top of row 3 side windows. Obviously the gap will be less when the seats are unfolded.
