I know of one person with one of these in question and saw another on sunday at the Dunboyne car show, but does anyone know of anywhere to pick these up?
Also, it seems difficult enough to find a cooper rally type roof rack, any ideas?
Thanks, Ciaran.

Ciaran,
I saw a roofrack on a stall at the Beaulieu Autojumble for sale at £175. Looked very fresh so could be a reproduction.

There was a dutch guy ahead of us in the queue at the IMM this year and he makes them, he was selling them for €180 from what I remember.
92Coop has one on his Mini, I think he picked it up in the UK.
A fully carbon fiber Mini Marcos shell weighs just 7.25kg.

The Dutch ones were made to look like they sat on the roof but were in fact gutter mounted.
