£130 for that piece of carp ......... more money than sense. There is a real one for sale on Mobile.de but its stuck to a van!

I agree with syncropaddy. This is "pooh". Have ordered the steel and have proper hinges and catches to make a real one.

The bloody state of it! Youd want to be a head banger to pay that sort of money! Im happy with my Bluebird one but 6 odd months down the line people are still telling me its never going to stay on. I wouldnt be inclined to agree to be honest. The bumpers still the exact same as it was when I put it on.

Well to be honest my bumper is in rag order and needs to be replaced anyway so I wasnt bothered about damaging that bumper having Andrew(!!!) put the spare wheel rack on. Now that i know it stays on fine when i replace my bumper Ill be putting the rack back on but Ill mount it so thatit sits nicely against the back door normally.
