Winter storage carcoon Vs air chamber
Discussion
Appreciate this has been done to death guys but I'm after some real world experiences of using either. Anyone on here ?
I'm pushed for space inside the garage really due to available height above nose of the car (storage stuff on wall that wont fit anywhere else).I can just about fit a Small air chamber in with a bit of jiggery on the front frame (4.5M Length) but car is 4430mm so quite tight. The other option is to get a size 4 carcoon 4.7M Length custom made to say 1.4M high.
Benefits of the air chamber are obviously aparent in never touching the car but the smaller space of a Carcoon is appealing. I'm wondering if anyone has suspended a carcoon to the ceiling and then maybe "tying" up the skirts as it deflates ?
Appreciate cars are meant to be driven to keep them in working order but the salt on he roads up here in Scotland from end of October onwards isn't going to do my Mk1 GT3 and favours or my marriage if I spend a day cleaning it after use every time.

Hi
I have a small airchamber I have used for my 993 for a couple of years which i bought off a guy on thr PCGB forum. I am likely to put the 993 into external store this year as the garage is getting a bit full to accommodate the car and the chamber. It works well - it took longer to inflate initially than on the DVD but once inflated it stayed up pretty well and entry / exit was ok.
If you are interested you can have mine cheap - say £150 plus postage. I think they are about £400 new. PM me if you are interested.
All the best,
Andrew
