FYI this is the response I received from Thule (United States) customer service concerning obtaining the Thule system that is still manufactured and sold for the 318ti in England: "If still available in the UK this may be the solution. However this may require finding a UK address as all Thule affiliates and retailer sign a "do not ship out of the country agreement". The European system is totally different and will not work with North American components." What a load of crap -- that Thule would still sell a rack system for our cars in Europe but we cannnot obtain them here! |
