The top box and bars are made by Thule and are still in good order (with all the keys etc.). The top box is fibreglass and the roof bars are alloy. The box is 2100(l)x850(w)x450(d)mm. The two bars are 1400mm each. They have an elliptical profile for low noise and are fully adjustable and lockable It will fit most medium to large cars and SUVs.

The top box is lockable and can be opened from either side (it has a hinge system), which is invaluable once it’s on top of the car. It also has clever adjustable fixings inside the box to attach it to the roof bars.

Although the whole thing is a few years old it was top of the range when purchased. It has a few marks on it and priced accordingly.
