Slightly OT but I can't find a more applicable thread, and where do I go to ask the big questions but lufgus...
- Has anyone had experience retro-fitting roof rails to a Golf or similar?
- Alternatively, can anyone convince me that spending £4k on a Volvo estate with 50% more mileage would still be better than £4k on a Polo/Golf/Golf Plus?
PS anyone fancy a project Audi Cab FE 2.8 V6?

Came to ask about a roof rack / box on a Golf too (mk6)!

You've selected pretty different cars there. If you need the space of a full sized estate then a polo won't do. The Volvo will probably be more expensive on every metric you can think of, but if it fits your needs...

Irrc the Golf Plus has roof rails.

Anyway, my question...

I need a roof rack and maybe a roof box. What should I be looking for? It will be used rarely - car boots for large possibly heavy objects, then a roof box to drive to Europe. Possibly also a bike, but probably not.

Ideally don't want to spend a fortune, but equally don't want a false economy.

Cheers.
