Roof luggage bag has a treat in store?

If you need more space for your holiday luggage, but don’t have room to store a roof box when it’s not in use, the HandiHoldall is the answer. It works with the HandiRack system to provide masses of capacity, yet folds into a package that’s small enough to be kept in the boot.

The product employs poles similar to those on a tent to create a rigid base, and we’d unrolled it ready for loading in seconds. Securely attaching the bag to the rack was not so simple; we had to follow the clear but complex instructions closely, although this wouldn’t be an issue once you’re familiar with the set-up. The 280-litre pack swallowed everything we wanted easily – we fitted two small cases and a medium soft bag. The HandiHoldall didn’t move on the road, even under heavy braking or cornering. Wind noise was minimal,
too. But while the holdall is great, the rack’s securing straps – which pass through the cabin from door to door – ate into interior space. A real drawback.
