Any car cover recommendations.....?

[Longers]

As title says really, I'm looking for a cover to put on the car while it's in the garage (where it sadly spends most of it's time at the moment!)

I've seen these guys advertise in Sprint http://www.classicadditions.com/index.php?cPath=1 Anyone used them or got any other recommendations?

Thanks,
Longers

A good friend of mine owns it...If you call ask for Adrian and tell him that Steve in Shrewsbury said you might give a bit of discount!

I bought an Indoor cover from Specialilsed Car Covers, a couple of years ago for my S. Its, designed and fitted to the car, especially for the TVR S. Its very good - Covering everything, Wing mirrors etc right down to the bottom of the bodywork.

Cost me about £150 IIRC..
Its, RED with a Giant TVR Logo on the bonnet. Comes with its own storage bag. Clean with no tears.

As I'm selling the S shortly, I'm open to offers..!
Its one of the list of things thatI'll get round to sorting out.

I'l take and upload a couple of Pics if needed.
I was going to put it on Ebay/Classifieds.

I have an outdoor one from Covercraft and can certainly recommend it Longers. I got the Noah one and it hasn't leaked a bit. Specially fitted for the S, including wing mirror covers and I believe they do indoor covers too, which will be cheaper as I paid £240 for mine.

Only thing I would say is make sure the back of the cover won't scratch the bodywork - look for one that has a fleece/cotton/protective interior. Besides, it'll keep her snuggled and warm in the winter time!!

Been using the cover-zone Sahara for years, they also now list a custom indoor cover for the S with mirror pockets. And reasonably priced for the quality.

I also have an outdoor Covercraft and its very good - most importantly it breathes - cheap covers are not to be recommended. I think it cost around £200 two years ago.

Hi Longers, sorry just seen this as been away. My wife bought me an outdoor/indoor cover from classic additions about 2 years ago. Its not had much outdoor action but it did for about 3 weeks while the garage was being repaired. During this time we had a lot of wind. When I went to take the cover off afterwards it had disintergrated from the inside, probably due to the rubbing on the hood. It has left an awful mess on the hood and the inside of the car that looks like soap flakes! I would steer clear of them.
