Plenty of suppliers on searching, just watch pricing, BMW 5 series bars are the same as Rover 75 but they charge more for the BMW version!!

Mine re paddy hopkirk but Summit do a wide rang, Try Towsure company and ask for what they have that fit, good pricing.

I did think last year that a set of roof bars (horizontal) would be needed, and started searching.

I found a company in (I think) Northern Ireland, that were manufacturing a pair based very much on the (unique) saloon bar. i.e. lovely streamlined plastic moulding, which clamped to the fore & aft bars.

They were a bit pricey, but if my requirement hadn't gone away, I'm certain that they would have looked "right"

Lots of roof rack / box / cradles would then fit to these bars.

Happy Hunting

Regards

Mike
