kash0613 Posted March 27, 2020 Posted March 27, 2020 Any uk owners had a roof basket fitted? I really fancy one,partly for the looks,partly because they will add a lot more luggage capacity when we go camping... Any recommendations/pictures of their xv's with them fitted? I'm a bit conflicted between cheaper versions on Amazon that seem to look great and come with roof racks and a thule system that are no doubt fantastic quality but mega expensive!
kash0613 Posted April 17, 2020 Author Posted April 17, 2020 Clearly not a thing in the UK then.... Got to say,this forum seems to reflect the low sales of xv's in the UK..... extremely quiet other than for one or two posters. 1
ernieb Posted April 17, 2020 Posted April 17, 2020 Sorry no experience although I have fitted some aero bars which I modified from my previous Skoda Yeti. Very quite even at motorway speeds. 1
SebP10 Posted April 17, 2020 Posted April 17, 2020 We haven't got one either; if we're going away we tend to take the Levorg as it has a bigger boot! The Subaru roof boxes look quite smart in the brochure, but I would assume they're a ridiculous price. It may be worth checking, if only to give you a price guide? (And if you think the XV forum is quiet you should see the Levorg forum 😄!) 1 1
ernieb Posted April 18, 2020 Posted April 18, 2020 I have to say that coming the the Subaru XV forum from the Yeti one I was on with Briskoda was a real shock. The Yeti forum would post hundreds of posts in a week and was incredibly proactive. It’s non the less good to have some activity to share experiences of the car we opted to buy, the XV is a good car overall. 2

(And if you think the XV forum is quiet you should see the Levorg forum 😄!) I very nearly bought a levorg before the xv,so I went on the levorg forums...and yes,it was like a desert! The only reason I didn't get a levorg was that I couldn't get a 2018 model when I was looking last year. Pretty pleased I hung on now however as I like the updated infotainment and softer suspension of the xv. The 1.6 turbo would have been nice though.
