Outdoor Car Cover

Hi all,

Coming in to the winter months and my Chim needs to keep out of the weather. I'm looking for a good outdoor car cover, preferably fitted.

Can anyone recommend one?

Thanks

Thanks for the input everyone.

I think everyone above has nailed it. The half cover is a good bet, along with making sure all the silicone sealed bits under the bonnet are water tight, the door seals aren't leaking and its water tight around the fuel filler neck.
These cars aren't hard to keep water tight, just an afternoon re-sealing is all that's required.
I must have sealed hundreds of them over a 4 year period, everything that lived on the forecourt never let in water. I'm happy to offer advice if needed.

This is my problem. Water is getting under the Velcro where the roof meets the body. There is a small gap between the tops of the windows and the rubber seal on the roof section which may be letting in a small bit. However, the worst area is just under the bonnet below the windscreen. There is a sealant there which has cracked and letting water in to the footwell.

What might be the best product to seal this area?

Thanks for the detailed explanation.. I find that very helpful. I will have to take a look to see if the 'elephant ears' are in place but from memory they aren't!

Interesting about the window adjuster.. I didn't know that.. There's a flat head screw adjuster just on the inside side of the door.. Again, I must take a look!
Thanks.

A framed cover is probably the best solution as you say Mark.. I'll keep an eye out
