My Expo is really only for the Kayak, so does just what I need TBH, but agree with you on the looks, at last a replacement to a LR rack that outrates it hands down.

I'd still like to see some more pictures of it, and it does kind of worry me that the sponsor producing the rack hasn't said anything else about it in a long time
Ad - the 75Kg limit seems to be more to do with the roof fixing, rather than any rack - this means that if you follow LR advice, the 75Kg limit should probably apply to the Prospeed rack too if you want LR to take responsibility of any possible problems caused by loading.2006 Discovery 3 TDV6 SE AutoBuckingham Blue 2007 Golf GT DSG
