Car cover recommendations

[SteveSarre]

Hi all,

I would like to buy a few car covers for my 1998/1999 V70s and 2000/2001 C70 convertibles, which are sitting outside in the weather.

To stop leaves, twigs, and bird mess accumulating over the next few months.
Also one of the C70s has a back window which has failed so I would like to keep the rain out.

Any recommendations (brand/size/seller) etc?

Thanks
Steve

I guess I'll need to decide how much protection I need (Sahara £57.90, Voyager £89.45 or Stormforce £179.99) (plus about £6.99 for delivery in the UK).

Actually I bought the Voyager one first, then decided I'd prefer the Stormforce. I think both are fine, the Stormforce a bit more 'upmarket' (and to be honest just matches the genuine Jaguar one I have on the wife's F Type).

Delivery is overnight. Good service, Mat is the sales manager and replies quickly to emails etc..

I have a Voyager cover for the C70 and very pleased with the quality and fit. I use it in the garage for which it is designed. I would not recommend it for outdoor use as I don't think it is reliably waterproof and not sure how it would stand up to wind buffeting.

I have a 3 year old waterproof fleece lined outdoor cover on the C70 which does do a very good job at keeping the moisture out and doesn't seem to be too susceptible to UV which I bought via eBay for around £95 at the time.

However, I replaced the Carpoint CPT1723250 Premium cover on my son's Eunos/MX5, which after three years UV, snow and ice was very badly cracked and no longer weatherproof, not too bad at all really for the money.
However, I replaced it around a year ago with a Stormforce cover which still looks brand new.

When the C70's cover fails it will definitely be replaced with a Stormforce which whilst they are double the price of the Voyager are much better at protecting the bodywork and cloth roof from damage and look as though they should last significantly longer.
