Which roof box ?

Been looking at the Halford Exedos one offer - think its 470l for around £200...

Really like the dark/gloss black look to go on my buck blue D3. Anyone got one of these
or give comment regarding a better one/alternative one to look into.

Any photos of different sizes on peoples D3's might make my mind up if the 470l is big enough ?

Regards

Kidz Thumbs Up

Find out the weight! Remember the limit is 75kg, including box and bars. Depending on what sort of stuff you will put in it, you may not be able to accommodate very much - so won't need to spend lots on a large box.

We went for the Thule 900. 650 litres, don't think there is much bigger out there and still going skiing it was tight between that and boot. Motto is buy biggest you can afford. Got mine on fleabay. Great place for 2nd hand roof boxes. Thumbs Up

Dont think I have Kidz,

780 is 1960mm long so from the back it site 4" infront of the raised bootlid and comes about 3/4 way past the front sunroof. Plenty of length there matey.
