Steve in Dublin Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 (edited) I need a cover in a hurry. I don't have time to wait for a 'tailor made' one. Being in Ireland I will need to source one from a multiple retailer such as Argos or Halfords. It is for outside use more to cover the car 'out of sight out of mind' style than protection against the elements. Has anyone ever used one over their beloved? If so which one and\or what size? I don't want it to blow away in a light breeze either.... Any ideas or links Thanks in advance Edited February 14, 2012 by Steve in Dublin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
peejay4A Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 I wouldn't go near a car cover, cheap or otherwise. If the car sweats due to condensation your beautiful paint job will suffer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RogerH Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 Hi Steve, if you are desperate for a cover then 'cover-zone' do a good range. For your application I would go with the 'monsoon'. However not ever so cheap. They will keep the usual elements off the car but!! as Pete mentions you can get sweating. If you have 2 pack paint you should be OK. Where it touchs edges with some pressure use some foam/sponge to spread the load. Roger Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Steve in Dublin Posted February 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 (edited) Thanks TRNiall for the suggestion. OKISTAG was very much up for that - so much so I nearly posted the keys to him! However the car is the best we can get it and its ready to go the 1295 miles to Arroyo de la Miel, near Malaga. We leave on tomorrow night's boat....followed by the long drive down through France and Spain Edited February 16, 2012 by Steve in Dublin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
