Hi All,

Just got car back from body shop and taken a hit with a bill for new wings, A panels etc etc I have no garage space at the moment so need a good quality cover for it as it will have to be stored outside for a while whilst I decide how to find some garage space.
Can any one recommend a cover taht they have used and works well

Many thanks

I've never come across one to be honest, probably have to spend over £100 I think.

They always seem to let moisture in and deteriorate in sunlight. Last one i got was an elasticated lined one with undercar straps etc , cost about £90, however it only lasted about 6 months and that was not in constant use either.

i found the best thing to do is get a cheapish cover and then cover it in tarpaulin, u'l need the cover as its not as rough on the car body as the tarp

Always best to put a box or something on the roof, but under the sheet/cover, this helps stop a build up of condensation.

put a tray of cat litter on the roof then put a cheap car cover over the top then a cheap tarlopin sheet

Many Thanks - it looks like there is no point in paying high prices for a specialist one then I will go with a cheap one and try to get space in the garage asap
