Fitment nuance per vehicle
Dacia Sandero
Roof bars are FITTED as standard on Stepway but the hatchback Sandero has a completely bare roof - not even fixed roof-rail feet - so it needs clamp-on (door-jamb) roof bars rather than a rail-mounted set. Rear parking sensors and a reversing camera are trim-dependent; universal camera-mount accessories that assume a factory tow-eye recess do not suit Essential trim which lacks it.
Mini Cooper
The ICE Cooper (F66) and electric Cooper (J01) share styling but are built on different platforms with slightly different exterior dimensions and boot shapes - always match accessories to the powertrain, not the trim badge. The 3-door has no rear doors, so rear seat organisers rely on driver/passenger reaching between the front seats; child-seat isofix is present but access is awkward.
