It was dearer than that first time round!

Blimey that's pricey! It's used, so it would have to be in as-new condition to justify that price. I wish them luck, they might get it, 200 accessories do seem to be hard to find now.

That's not a bad price. I've seen them make more.

My first 240 had the fitting kit for one of the load covers but no cover. I threw the fixings in the bin.

I paid £30 for a boxed 'new old stock' one with fittings 10 years ago. The seller had 6 available.

Wish I had bought them all looking at this price.

Never thought much of them as an accessory to be honest. Fiddly to remove when the back seat needed to fold down and more likely to attract opportunist thieves than deter them - depends what your carrying about I suppose.

Just looked at this sellers other items and he does indeed seem expensive. If lucky one should be able to get far cheaper at the BKV this coming weekend: s friend paid £30 for his a few weeks ago.
He wants loads for 240 door pockets, and whilst admittedly they do get broken I paid £5 each for mine when at the BKV a couple of years back

Interesting, I've just been to check mine, and I have the same fitting kit, but no load cover...
I'm guessing it might be in my interest to remove these, if anyone wants or needs please pm me, i'm not an utter capitalist...
Much...
