Thule Motion XT M gloss black roof box no. 629201

The Motion XT is stylish and spacious. It's TÜV approved for loads to 75kg and comes with a glossy black lid on a matt black base. It is designed to have a forward position on the car roof, looking neat and leaving more room at the rear of the vehicle to open the tailgate.

Key features and specifications:

• Dual Side opening with lid handles so you can choose to use it on either side of the vehicle, and to make for easier fitting and removal.
• There’s a Thule 'One Key System' compatible central locking system on each side of the box.
• Easy to open and close in all conditions thanks to grip-friendly handles and supporting 'lid-lifter' struts.
• 'SlideLock' locking system automatically locks the lid in place and red indicator tabs let you know that the box is securely closed.
• "Power-Click" box to bar fittings. You just turn each wheel to draw the fitting claws around the roof bars, making this box easy to fit to both standard steel and wider aluminium roof bars – maximum dimensions 90mm wide by 30mm deep - they fit all the bars we sell. These fittings also make it easier to fit boxes to unusual shaped manufacturers’ “own brand” bars, but these bars must be symmetrical in shape for the Power Clicks to work properly.
• If you're using aerobars, and want to maximise the space in the box, we recommend that you remove these fittings (they lift out very easily) and instead use Thule’s T-track aerobar adapters (listed below) which provide an invisible box to bar fitting as well as allowing you to make full use of the box capacity.
• Box weight 17.5kg. Before loading the box, check your vehicle's maximum permitted loading limit, taking into account the weight of the roof bars, the weight of the box, and the weight of the contents.
• Dimensions: External 175cm x 86.5cm x 46cm. Internal 75.5cm wide x TBAcm (it depends on what you pack, and where, and whether you use Power Clicks or aerobar adapters).
• Carrying skis? The Motion XT M will hold 4 to 6 pairs of skis, maximum length 155cm. There’s a ski carrier accessory available separately, shown below (this only works with the original PowerClick fittings, not the optional T-track aerobar adapters).
• Roof bar geometry: The maximum distance between roof bar centres is 93cm, the minimum distance 56cm.
• Guarantee: 5 years

Delivery FAQs

When will my order arrive?
There are no deliveries on Saturdays, Sundays or Bank Holidays, except for postable items where Royal Mail has a Saturday delivery. Express Delivery orders placed on a Friday (before 1pm) should be delivered on the Monday or Tuesday, Express Delivery orders placed on a Saturday or Sunday should be delivered on the Tuesday or Wednesday. The arrangements for Very Heavy Items are different and are shown above.

What about Next Working Day delivery?
Most Express delivery orders will arrive on the next working day, if the order is placed before the cut-off time (see above). Some will arrive on the second working day if there has been a "split-delivery". So-called “split deliveries” happen when the couriers do not have enough trailer space for everything that should be moved around the UK, so they will load what they can and leave the rest for the next trailer.

Is my delivery day guaranteed?
No retailer or courier company can ever "guarantee" a Next Working Day delivery. As well as split deliveries, all courier companies occasionally have the same transport problems as can happen to everyone else, including snow blocked roads, closed roads, traffic jams, mechanical breakdown, an inability to find the delivery address, or to gain access to it if, for example, it's in a block of flats. We work with some of the best couriers in the business, and overall they provide an outstanding service.

Do I need to be at home?
We are very flexible with our deliveries and will aim to deliver to an address which suits you – this does not need to be your home address. Goods can usually be left without signature - we prefer this with roof boxes. There's a "Special Delivery Instructions" box in the checkout area where we'll ask you to choose a typical instruction and then amend it to suit your particular requirements.
