So I know it's a long shot but me and the missus are going to CZ for Christmas with her folks. I was wondering if anyone had the roof racks I could borrow as this is the only real time I will ever need them so don't want to buy a set. We will hire a roof box alternatively if you have one I can use too that would be awesome. I am willing to pay a "hire" fee if needs be. We are travelling from the 22/12/2012 and returning on the 01.01.2013.

Christ, how much stuff are you taking!

I would offer my set, which with swappable feet (£40 or so) would fit, but you should be able to pick up a Leon specific set for that

Thanks Mark but as said if I don't have to I don't want to buy a set as I will never use it again. We are taking a friend with us and dropping her in Prague and the cat is coming too so madam dearest wants space in the back of the car for the cat :wtf: As you can see, hubby dearest just has to make miracles happen to accomodate the queen [:@]

Missus & in-Laws......say no more:rofl:
Good Luck Jas , you'll need it :)

:lol: :rofl: It is always fun trying to communicate when her parents don't speak a word of English and my Czech is even worse hahahahha

I've got roof bars mate, would that be any use? Would fit a pre-fl leon

Don't have an actual roofbox tho.

That is perfect mate, I appreciate it. Just a little far from me. Do you have boxes to put it in? I will pay for a courier to collect them from you.

Cat to the cattery will be cheaper than the additional fuel cost and hassle

Tell the friend to GTFO, and use a plane like the rest of the modern world

Then enjoy a nice drive stopping when you want, farting when you want

In all seriousness after 2hrs in the car ours used to puke up or **** because of being upset then kicked it all out of the hutch and into the car

I'd really consider not taking a cat!
