Years ago it was dead easy to fit a universal roof rack to your Moggy Minor but these days it seems to be a pain in the proverbial!
Even if your car comes with roof rails you still need to then get roof bars before you can use the wretched things. I have got a pair of bars I bought in Lidl a couple of years ago but no rails. I have wondered about looking round a scrapyard for any small car with rails and adapting them to fit my 2008 Chevrolet Spark. I'm not too worried if I need to drill holes in the roof channels. I would leave the headlining in place, drill through it and find some kind of bungs for the holes. Has anyone here found a solution to the problem of fitting a roof rack to a modern car?
