Roof rack + roof box

Post by jerrypaulick »

Hi,

The situation so happened that I arrived in Norway with empty T4 and will be leaving with 7 people and all their luggage. It's probably not gonna fit all inside (we are all students and are here for a whole semester and the amount of stuff corresponds that).

Anyway, either I can tell everyone to mail their stuff home by post, but I was wondering, what are realistical prices for which I could buy used roof rack and roof box (reasonably big)?

At some website (rubrikk.no) I found the roof rack (takstativ?) for T4 for about 200 NOK, which is decent price, but I have no clue about the boxes. I don't want a new one, because back home, I already have the biggest Thule Atlantis 900. :) Wanted to bring it but I couldnt change the ferry booking last minute...

Thanks!

PS: If you happened to be selling either one of these, I am in the Ålesund region. :)

A roof rack brand new, will cost you from 1000-2500, depending which one you choose, and if it is reduced price at the moment.
A roof box like packline with fiber glass will cost something about 8000,-
Plasticboxes is about 4000,- and up.
So you have something to compare with.
Used boxes is seen from 500 up to 75% of new...

Thank you all, I will try to figure something out :)

Neergård: Do you still have it? I'd be interested in it, but it very far for me :(
