Thinking of getting one of these but I am concerned that at 2m long and 90cm wide it is too big for a Citroen C4 Grand Picasso. Its for carrying lightweight bulky items so the weight isnt an issue.

Hi welcome to the forum.

I don't have the answer for you, but everyone else on here suggests The Roof Box company as being very helpful.  I'm not sure how you post a link, but you could Google them.

We are also looking at that roofbox as it got such good reviews.  If you get it, let me know how you get on with it please.

Hi
We have a 5 door Astra and the Kamei husky XXL fit's very well.
We was sceptical at first, but the image on Kamei website showed our car with the box on the roof.
So we thought it would be fine.

We are very happy with the box, apart from the gas struts for the hinge to open and close the lid.
There is a pin that holds everything in place, which falls out on our box.
We rectified this by inserting a 3mm x 30mm long bolt with nuts/washers.
Since we have done this the box has been perfect.
Have a look at the photograph below to see how it fit's on our car.

Just to let you know your post has triggered another order for the Husky from the roofbox company. Fingers crossed next day delivery means tomorrow. Gulp, we leave on Sunday and our cheapo Aldi one seems to have shrunk with use. Hope this one one lasts as long though, it's served us well until the shrinkage...
