Maggiolina roof tent - where to buy?

I am in the market for new/used Maggiolina roof tent. Any ideas where to buy except for BOAB?

I have just opened it upon arrival to check for transport damage (and crawled inside Smile). Now it's back in the box waiting for arrival of the new Thule crossbars. Original LR crossbars proved to be useless, as they are only about 110cm wide (compared to 1465cm width of the tent). Check my gallery for the photos. D3 LE James Cook, 2,7 TDV6 auto

I finally fitted the new Grand Tour Maggiolina last Friday. The original LR cross bars proved to be too short (only app 110cm to carry the medium sized tent. So I had to swap for Thule to get the necessary width required (at least 145cm). The new crossbars had to be adjusted do fit the relatively narrow span of the roof rails, but ... how hard it could be Smile
Couple of phone-camara-quality pictures in my gallery.

EDITED: Just in case someone is interestested in Thule crossbars, here is the setup:

Foot pack - 753
Bars 150 cm long - 763
Kit - 3027 D3 LE James Cook, 2,7 TDV6 auto
