Boot rack

[grahamdjohnson]

I've just bought a Berlinetta (fantastic, delighted with it) and am taking it for a gentle tour around France for about 10 days camping. I am thinking that we might need a little more luggage space, so have been looking a boot racks.
Has anyone used this one?:

You can buy extra legs to make it fit over the tyre, but I would like to get some opinions before I take the plunge!

Also, what are people's opinions of the above website for buying parts?
Thanks

The stainless one is the better buy

Re: Boot rack

Well, just found out that it won't fit over the spare wheel on the back, so that options out. What racks have others gone for?

Re: Boot rack

I can't remember seeing a boot rack on a Berli, but someone may have done one. You can get a lot of stuff on the back seat unless you have a dog. Use soft bags.

Re: Boot rack

Lots of Berlys with boot racks, Brian Gadd, Tim Hawkesworth,
both these cars at Stoneleigh, and more. What you do is extend the legs of the rack to fit over the spare wheel, or have purpose made, or adapt. Lots of ways. Have a look and do your own.
