Car covers

[divebomb]

I'm buying a '67 1800S and, as I've no garage, I'm thinking of buying a car cover for it.
Do they provide much protection and, if so, can anyone recommend a brand?

I had a similar problem except I had a garage but was unable to get out of the car once I was in it as so narrow! ,I wouldnt recommend a cover as mine seemed to trap moisture within and encourage rust .The solution a mate of mine found was this cover that looked like a hood from an old fashioned pram .It folded flat when not in use and covered the car without touching it .Ive seen them advertised in Classic car weekly and in Practical classics.No idea how much they cost mind .

That firm that does the covers is called Folding Garage and the number is 01933 410851
