A place to chat about anything thats not football related. Most of the threads in here are completely pointless which is why people keep coming back and back. As the forum title suggests, feel free to make any post you want on any subject you wish. It also has Adult jokes (so be warned) which is the other reason people keep coming back.

It's unusual for Volvo to not get the kits right.
I run a company that manufactures Roofracks for Commercial vehicles and supply accessories to 4x4's etc.
We supply several Volvo kits to customers and they are usually very good.

Got this at Halfords, its a paddy hopkirk rack with afiiting kit for the Volvo. I just phoned the guy and gace off as I need it on Wed to go to airport. he has now agreed to change it for aThule set of roof bars with a tray and fitting kit for same price, so I am up there as it worth about £150
but still messed about.

That it explains it as the Paddy H's are well known for being crap.
You will be fine with the Thule units as they are good quality.
I would say its worth the inconvience.
