  1. I opted for Atera SIGNO Fixpoint aluminium roof bars (AR5144) from roofbox.co.uk and have fitted four CRUZ 'Bici-rack' lockable bike carriers (940 005). The whole assembly lifts off the roof in one piece which makes it easy to fit/remove. I looked at the official roof bars, but they seemed taller and I don't think you can use the full width like the Atera aluminium oval bars which have a T groove across all of the width. There are some grooves in the roof rails where the official roof bars must lock into position and I placed the Atera feet just behind these points. The car felt a tad top heavy round roundabouts, but stable and easily did 130kph (legal limit in France on motorway) with a bit of wind noise, but no rattles. I put two adult bikes on the centre positions and the childrens on the outside to keep the weight central. Recommend them. Graham
