Zusammenfassung:	A vehicle is provided having bodywork including at least one sidewall 21, 23 and a crossbar. The crossbar 11 is movable between a storage position (figure 3) and a load support position. The crossbar 11 is removable from the vehicle 1 by sliding the crossbar 11 off the rear end of the sidewall 21, 23. The crossbar 11 is shaped and configured so that when in the storage position it appears integrated with a part of the bodywork, and when in the support position it is displaced from the storage position to provide support for a load. The crossbar may be slid along the sidewalls due to at least one of the supports 53 for the crossbar being provided with a slider (61 figure 5a) which travels along a train (69) of greased balls located within a channel in the upper surface of the sidewall. The crossbar may be locked at any position along the sidewalls by means of a locking pad (81) and release handle (77).
