Hello all,



I am new on here and am wondering where I can purchase a Expedition Roof Rack for my Freelander 2 as I am wanting to Off Road Spec it.



I look forward to your assistance

"Off-road spec it"???



If you're off-road, the last thing you want is a roof-rack! Same goes for expeditions and general use as the last place you want to put anything is on the roof. Also, if you're having to put stuff on the roof... You're carrying too much!



Be honest, you just wanting to add bling and pose with it... ;)

The Breed roof rack as fitted to the G4 FL2 looks as if it will prevent the sun roof from opening - please confirm gents.

If fitting a roof tent the one we fitted to our FL1 will fit the standard Land rover roof bars and allow the sun roof to open - useful in hot climates, park in the sun, leave the sunroof open, roof tent provides mobile shade.

Putting lots of heavy stuff on the roof, not a good idea, putting bulky lightweight stuff up top when you are limited for space, OK. Putting a lightweight nylon rooftent up there when you need the accommodation and there is the possibility of scorpions on the floor, even Gill admitted it was a good idea, especially after she had spotted the first scorpion on the second night!

Fitting roof rack, and lights, and G4 plaque, guaranteed to increase fuel consumption - but it does look good
