Hi:
Is there anybody who can recommend a ski rack for the roof of my 1990 Mercedes 300SE? Or any other Mercedes sedan for that matter?
Thanks in advance.

I don't know about the E-Class, but I bought the Mercedes roof bars for my W202 Estate (station wagon for our friends across the pond). I did the rounds of the discount chain shops (Halfords, Les Smith etc.) and by the time I had added on the cost of the adaptors, fitting kits, locks and so on, the price for an ugly Heath-Robinson look alike was only about £30 less than the beautifully crafted, made to measure Merc item. No contest.

Hi Stratman/DD:
Where did you find Mercedes racks? I'm in San Francisco, not the UK, and didn't see any on the MB USA web page.

I went to the local main dealer and asked. It is quite a big dealer, with lots of very expensive alloy wheels etc. on show.
Happy skiing DD

Thanks for your reply.
I guess we disagree then about what looks good. The Thule and Yakima racks are exactly the racks I don't want -- general purpose Erector set constructions. Makes the Mercedes look like a Saab.
Thanks anyway.
