Genuine rover roof bars
 
Hi all, looking for some genuine roof bars for my saloon.
I was bidding on some but lost out, but have since found the roof box.
Would be good if I could get the bars before collecting the box as I can put it straight on the roof!
Thanks in advance!

Rare as rocking horse poo I'm afraid buddy
I think you can get aftermarket ones that do fit however

Was that the set eBay that went for £158.87 + p&p ?

Yup, you weren't the buyer were you?

What's worse is if I'd have remembered the auction end time, I'd have paid even more!

I have seen them for a lot less though usually around £80 I think in the past 3 months there have been 3 sets of genuine saloon roof bars on eBay now. I lost out on the other one too again by just a couple of quid, the one after that I only seen it as it was in its last few seconds of the auction and I didn't have enough time to bid!

So I've managed to find some roof bars that aren't genuine for my car for £15 anyway what was also included in the sale is some genuine roof saloon roof bars with the keys free of charge! One of the plastic covers is missing but never mind! They are free!!
I am meant to be collecting on Saturday.
The only thing I'm having trouble with is the seller, first everything was fine but now he won't answer any texts and I just phoned him, and he said he had no signal when I told him it was me? Not sure what's happening? I may try and encourage him to talk by offering more money maybe? After all I nearly paid over £150 for a pair so even if I paid £50 I'd be a lot better off never mind the original £15. Hopefully I can buy these if they exist!

Just spoke to the seller and everything is sorted, they are the genuine saloon bars and they come with the keys too! All I need to do is collect the roof box from Nottingham! Happy days.

Glad your sorted with a set I use mine now and again and they do come in handy at times.

Same here, they are missing one of the covers I imagine they'll look like these in the picture with one missing, by the way the ones in the picture are the first set I missed out on, on eBay and was outbid on.http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/11...88c027ad87.jpg
I imagine it will be harder to find the plastic cover then it will another set of roof bars?
