Has anybody used a Carcoon for keeping a Caterham outside (not in a garage)? What are your experiences? Would be interested in seeing one in use around North Somerset if possible.

It works great if it is not snowing too much or the carcoon will implode and turn into a car cover. If you can use it under carport or build a simple roof it would be preferred.

I used mine for one winter. It is for sale as now I have a garage.

Thanks for reply - is Carcoon in Sweden or do you spend time in UK?

I bought an outside version (size 3?) in Nov '13. My 7 has lived in it ever since and seems to be loving it! It comes complete with battery charger (you have to order an adaptor if you want to use the 12v socket for this) and it doesn't seem to use much juice.

I have been very pleased with it and even though it got absolutely battered by the recent storms it has stood up to everything very well without any damage or water ingress. I have added some PVC flooring sections and this helps spread the load on the floor.

I am in M/cr so saved on the postage (they are in Salford).
