Hey Khalid,
i think you should visit BMW road Sharjah. i'm sure you'll find what you're looking for and in a good price range.

Oh if you're in abu dhabi may be someone can help you to find it closer to your place.

BMW road is actually Al Nahda Street, the same road you take going to Sahara Center.
This might help http://g.co/maps/ef2ge

Hi Khalid,

I own a pajero as well, but I don't take it off-road. I can't remember seeing any pajero with a proper roof rack. Most of the ones available in Sharjah are for the toyotas and Nissans. You may find an aluminum roof rack, but those are mostly "decoration" since they can't hold much load.
A good question to ask is why do you need the roof rack? What kind of stuff do you want to put on it, or is it just to make the car look better?

Hi DL

well the roof rack is intended for a rather long trip i am planing for next summer all the way up to Germany and back so i was planning to have the roof rack as a clean safe spot for placing a tent when the grown is not that safe (like the jordan desert lots of darn snakes in the summer and i do know that for a fact) plus good for loading extra spars and other thing i dont need to reach to too fast

Hi Khalid .... The roofrack i have on my Pajero is from Australian Outback ..... Not cheap but i would say reasonably priced ....... it can accomodate awnings and tents as well as other accessories because of the multi purpose rails the rack is equipped with ....

hope this picture helps
