Made in Germany, excellent quality and very good value.

A good (and cheaper) alternative to BMW bars, and Thule. Sadly I've had to buy Thule bars as the Atera ones have sold out, such is the demand!
Just bought some of these and by coincidence from the same supplier (previous good experience with a Thule Atlantis roofbox). Ordered Monday night and delivered this afternoon on a 3-5 day delivery service. A comparative bargain at £120 including delivery.

The bars fit like a dream - really simple to set up first time and then after that they go on in less than a minute. The track is 122cm so you get more load space than the BMW bars although they're not quite as elegant as they extend over the support legs a little at each end rather than tapering down.

It was dark when I fitted them - I'll take some pics at the weekend when there's some light and the car's had its first wash.
