Tourer Roof Bars Bargain At Lidl

. hammer · 3rd June 2010, 16:44

Just picked up a bargain and thought I'd share! Lockable aluminium roof bars to fit our tourers for £24.95 available from today. If you're interested I suggest you hurry!

they look good, have you fitted them ?

Not yet - but the clamps look compatible and the packaging states 75 tourer. To be honest, I asked my wife to get down to our local branch first thing this morning - I've not long returned from work - the ad stated the length of the bars (which was ample according to my tape measure) so I was prepared to modify at that price but they are clearly compatible with the profile of our rails. I'd also say they look better than the pic in the ad! Max load is 90kg.
