Let's see if I can get a better response with this post :-)

I have a Peugeot 206 and am looking to take my girls camping in August we have only every used the car for one night camping and with the 2 girls, dog and bf it was a struggle fitting it all in.
So was wondering if anyone could give me some advice with regards to additional storage facilities on my car, ie roof box and where to purchase/hire
Thank you :-)

Are you here as a Troll from Mumsnet ? smile

If you are not, then turn down your attitude, and thank that guy at the garage for doing a good job with your MOT.

What attitude would that be?
As for thanking him I doubt that, not good at doing as I am told :-p

I guess it would be a "demanding" attitude.

You didn't answer my question about the chance that you might be a Mumsnet Troll.

I haven't demanded anything, I thought the point of a forum was to get opinions, advice and help. Just because our opinions differ does not mean I am demanding.
As for being a mumsnet troll, no I am not do you get many women from mumsnet trolling your site :-)

If you want to fit a roof box you will need roof bars first. These are different depending on whether it is a 3/5 door car so get the right ones.

I would look on ebay for bars and a box, they are quite pricey new although Halfords were doing deals on their own brand jobbies last time I was in there but I have no idea how good they are. Mine is Thule and the bars for my car were about £50 off fleabay smile

Thank you for your help. I have noticed they are quite costly especially if buying new. I don't currently have roof bars and wouldn't have known they w differ dependant on number of doors. Mine is a five door.
