I'm off to Wales in six weeks or so for some camping. I don't travel light, and I've got two daughters and a big dog; so I'm keen to optimise my load carrying capacity. I'm thinking about a roof rack.
This isn't a huge expedition (drive there on the motorway, drive to Waitrose for supplies during the week, drive home on the motorway) and it happens once a year.
I've got a 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis TD5 pimpmobile which has the fat pipe roof bars instead of the square, slim ones.
Is there a way to make the fat pipe roof bars carry a load? Or are they purely cosmetic, and I need to put a gutter-mounted rack on top or on the back?
