I am looking to buy a roof box and wondered if anyone could guide me - we are looking at either a Exodus 580l or Thule Atlantis 900 as they are extra large, quick fitting, dual side opening and aren’t too wide so still enough space for 1 bike rack!
They are similar capacities but quite different in dimensions with the Exodus being quite a bit deeper than the Thule and the Thule being quite a bit longer.
We will be packing mainly softer items into the box so am thinking the deeper one would be better for SIM etc
i would say go for the deeper one The Exodus, I think it will give you more packing options but that is only my opinion the next post might suggest different, At the end of the day it is what fits your needs best and what fits best on your car.
Give some thought to storage when not in use.
I was limited to standing mine on end in my shed, with a head height of 2m, which affected the max. length of the box I could go for. A slightly smaller box than I would have otherwise gone for, but that was easier to deal with than finding storage at home for a longer box.
Borrowed my mates Kamie Husky XXL for our trip to France last year, fantastic capacity far more than my Kamie Dolphin 380 obviously.
Decided to get one myself, but unfortunately Roofbox co no longer list the model, not sure if it’s become a discontinued line, hopefully not, but I believe there is an alternative.
Amazing family weekend with old steam engines, classic car displays, market stalls, and full catering and bar. And camping on site - Save £25 by booking in advance.
