That's a new one on me too!

I've never been a fan of luggage racks on sports cars and GTs, but I guess if you want to drive your British classic on longer trips, it's the only way to accommodate sufficient luggage.

Cheers,

I've seen these on miatas, but when i need more luggage space than my miata has, I just take my jag... it already has an enormous loot capacity.

 

Brings me back to a fond and vivid memory -- of my Triumph TR6, to which I had added a similar rack. As I was circling the Eiffel Tower, perhaps to speedily, I lost the luggage that was strapped on. Operator error, I am sure. Luckily, I continued around again, stopped and retrieved it. Thanks, pcolapacker for the memory !

 

Might be attempting to emulate Steve McQueen's famous 1956 XKSS, the "Green Rat"....

 

One of the greatest cars of all time:

 

Not sure why this is needed with the generous space available in the boot and back seats (that are only good for storage). I do see the nod to nostalgia for owners of earlier British two-seaters.

 

yes, the racing stripes are a new one for me too.

Not a good look in my opinion but each to there own.
