| Thule 900 Roof Box available (The biggest one) |
|
Managed to get the 650l Thule box over the weekend as a buy it now. Excellent size for the D3 with 7 seats up.
Problem; it's in Essex and it's a fortune to get it north.
Solution 1; anyone in Essex want to borrow it while i try and find a courier company? ( and keep it safe in their garage)
Solution 2; anyone want to buy it if I can't find a courier? Only £100!

I'd be interested if Rob's not. Looking to get one for Hols, at that price, it's a bargain.....  Bodsys Brake Bible

I've just spent all weekend trying to fit my Thule 900 box to Land rover rood bars. I've got the little t-track adaptors that slide into where the rubber strip is. The problem is that they tighten inside the box. If the box doesn't open on BOTH sites then you cannot reach the fittings on the hinge-side to tighten them down.
The later boxes hinge on both sides. I'm hoping this one does that.
cheers

Can't get it North. Up for sale for £100. It takes up too much volume to go with a carrier.

PM me for seller's details and I'll put you in touch. I've already paid for it so cheque / PayPal to me.

This week I'd imagine. All wrapped up today by the vendor for courier. Unfortunately it is calculated by the volume it takes up and how much weight that would be in other things.

I could pick up on Saturday. See what the other guys say first, obviously. All opinions expressed in this posting are my own and are not necessarily those of someone who knows what they are talking about.
