Which Roof Top Box
Q. How big
should the box be?
How much do you need to carry?
Don't choose a
box that may be too small. Go for a slightly larger box than you think
you need - you will always manage to fill it!
If you're carrying skis, fishing tackle, windsurf
boards (anything long) you will need a ski box. If your planning to use
a box to transport luggage, golf bags or rucksacks you'll be fine with a
luggage box - obvious really!
Q. Do I
need to spend a lot for a good quality box?
No. If you are not going
to be using it regularly a simple box like one from the
Contour380 or
Contour470
ranges will serve your
needs perfectly.
If you are going to be using it on a regular
basis you try a box from the
X1,
Atlantis or
Spirit
ranges for a better
investment.
Tip
You
will also need a set of
roof bars
to fasten the box to the car.
Special attention should be paid to their
quality as they take all the strain of the load.
