Roof Bars

[wirral sea fishing]

I went to get roof bars for the van today (renault traffic) I had already priced them via renault and thought that Halfords would be a cheaper option, how shoked was I !!!!

 

Halfords wanted nearly £194.00 for 2 roof bars, the bars were £31.00 each then they added on things like the fixing kit .. errrrr should that not come with it, then the brackets, again - should that not come with it ? so i told the guy i was off to renaut, only to be told you wont beat that price SIR ! - Sir indeed !!!!!!

 

Renault supplied the lot for £95.00 the pair and dead easy to fit (need another one thought) so on my way back i returned to Halfords just to show him the price... You got trade was the reply ! - i wont tell you my reply Elton will get upset with the langauge

Halfords are becoming a joke with their pricing, I wanted a set of blades for the C3 Halfords wanted over 20 pounds, got the pair from the main dealers for 10 pounds encluding a little man who fitted them, They must of had the idea that with my grey hair was not up to the job, Boy the are so right .terry

Crikey only paid £50 for my Halfords roof bars last year. Still going strong

Back on the bars subject, has anybody tried the inflatable ones? I saw some for £50 and they would seem ok for short journeys. Can be stored in the car when not needed.
