WAS THIS A GOOD IDEA!? First 500 Miles in My Ferrari SF90 with Roof Box

It's time to get on the road! My Ferrari SF90 Stradale is fully prepared and ready for a rather unusual adventure, but it's day 1 and that means the first 500 miles / 800kms to France. The question is, how well are these suction roof bars going to hold up with the box!?

The SF90 is an absolutely fantastic car to use for so many purposes, only let down by the lack of luggage space as a lot of the front area is used for the electric motors that support and bring it to 1,000hp. While that's absolutely a non-issue for daily driving as I do at home to and from @TheShmuseum, it does mean that if you want to go on a longer adventure, another plan is required. Given my former life working as a ski instructor... that means a roof box!

I bought a now discontinued Thule roof box from a Volvo dealership (a rebrand exercise for the same product) and a set of SeaSucker Monkey Bars, before getting the box itself painted into Blu Elettrico to match the car at Godleman's. Simultaneously, the tyres have been swapped over to a set of Michelin Pilot Alpin in case we happen to find some snow on our travels - which is certainly the objective.

The first day kicks off from the barn with a long leg ahead to take the Eurotunnel to France and make our way all the way down to Strasbourg, with the slight nerves of how well this roof contraption is going to hold up along the way. Let's find out how it goes!

Thanks for watching, Tim
