I think the mk3 suits a roof rack.....a modern Thule style.

there was a mk3 (iirc) that was part of Barcelona Bangers last year that pitched up after the event at No Rice. It had a roof rack and was rat-look... even had an ironing board on top if you fancied a spot of extreme ironing  :cool:

A rack mounted on a mk3 Cabrio, now that's different.

Just for the looks would be pointless.

It will only increase mpg, ruin the look actually and waste of money.

When we go on holiday the bags and stuff will go on the missus and kids laps and in footwells. There is no way I would put a roof rack on mine EVER !!!!!
