Hi Guys,
I'm looking to buy a Maggiolina Roof Tent Like this one and was wondering if anyone knows of a stockist nearer to me than Peterborough (I'm in Yorkshire)
CheersBack in the game!

I'm not sure that they are up to the job, I seem to remember reading about a weight restriction for the bars when I bought my roofbox.
I'm sure someone will tell us shortly.

It would not be a very good fix on the roof bars a roof rack would be much beter but that well ad more expense to the tent the roof rails are up to it you will have to look at the fixings on the tent to see how it will fix onHome of RLD Hidden winch mounts Spare wheel Locks Trailer Body Fabrication [email protected] D3/4 sump plates MY 14 sump plates and the Discovery Sport wheel protectors Discovery 5 wheel locks

Just thought about it a bit more logically. The weight restriction would be for load weight in transit. Static weight would be totally different. The L/R aero bars look a little feeble, but hopefully will be up to the job. Alternatively maybe the Thule bars are a bit more robust.

DD, why do you specifically want a Magnolia tent?
What's wrong with Green, Russet etc???

DD,
I'm not certain, but I think Red Defender got theirs from Peterborough.
