Default Saloon Roof Rack / Bars

Looking for the above, OEM ones please. I see there’s one set on eBay just now but is buyer to collect, even if I was the successful bidder and it’s hunners of miles away.

Why not use Thule roof bars? May be not as pretty but they are wider
and perhaps better for securing things such as a ladder to.

Had thought about them but one of our works vehicles has Thule bars fitted and I wasn’t impressed with how they are attached unfortunately.

ok fair point. FWIW I have used them without any problems be it coming loose or causing damage and they have been rock solid. I do place a piece of inner tube between the fitting that the door closes on and the underside of the roof to make sure there is no damage.
