I bought my Thule bars back when I ran a W123 estate , also used them with my W124 estates , bought a different foot pack to use with my W201's and finally bought longer rails to use on my W126 ( the 'gutterless' feet meant for the W201 work fine despite the car having gutters ) . My Thule accessories have served me well over 15+ years and numerous vehicles .
Most manufacturers seem to use the Thule ones....mine are Thule although have Nissan on them!!! Fit perfectly onto my W203 estate (I only use them very occasionally) and also a number of previous estates (funnily enough I have never owned a Nissan though...got the bars cheap off eBay)
