In the publicity brocure there is a picture of the rear of the car with a luggage rack with a small suitcase sitting on top of the engine cover. Was this an optional extra when the car was launched and does anybody know where I could get them from

Many thanks

Rare as hens teeth and for a good reason. I believe they were prone to cracking the rear clams

Requires drilling of the clam to put on.

Not surprising considering how thin the clams are. I reinforced mine to take the weight of a bike rack and bike so it wouldn't have been a problem, but in the end I made my own rack, so this has been in the attic gathering dust ever since.
