Revo Rack

Post by KRD9239 » Tue Mar 15, 2022 12:25 pm

Hi

I've just bought a 2019 Z4 and the first outing is a month long road trip travelling around Europe. Ideally I'd like to make use of a boot rack to extend the amount of luggage I am taking. Does anyone have any experience of using a luggage rack on the G29 model. I was looking at the rack by https://revo-rack.com/language/en/revo- ... gage-rack/ that attaches to the boot lid by the vacuum method...

I did add to a post regarding a boot mounted bike rack and from the response I got I understand the boot lid is perhaps not that strong. I obviously don't want to damage the lid in any way...

Any suggestions or experience would be brilliant... :tumbleweed:

Not quite the same but I have one of these, sits behind the passenger seat in a bag when not in use, and easy to use when needed.

Re security, it unclips and can be put in the passenger side when leaving the car when parked up if needed. We often start off with it stowed away and as the OH accumulates the various amounts of sh!te she’s known too when we’re away, it comes into service :D

    You could alway just buy the matting and some straps without buying the bag. I think my daughters stand up paddle board, once bagged up, would fit ok.

    Z4 is way more fun, if it doesn’t fit just hire a paddle board when you get to your destination :lol:
