Show us your car cover

[XJR500bhp]

Something very sinister about an Aston under the covers, lets see yours. I'm also curiosu to see what colours the covers came in and what other convertible Astons use. This one left crap all over the hood until Aston supplied an insert that was supposed to be there originally

Mine's the same as yours

But it's just left on the floor - the car is never clean enough to put it on

[Arjxh56]

Same as yours but black with grey piping.. Mine is in a bag as the car is being used regularly and therefore filthy!

Mine is silver, with black piping, don't use it now fior the exact same reason with the roof, getting covered in fluff.

I will have to ask the dealer about a liner.

Its ok for you wealthy people with garages, mines outside in all weathers.

I now know what the white insert is for, I couldn't figure out what good it was on a coupe.
Mine is the smae only black with silver stitching.

Daft question: why use a cover if storing the car indoors? I have a lovely heated garage that keeps my db9v warm during winter and away from the elements all year round. No cover however...am I missing something?

Mine lives in an underground car park which has a lot of natural light / ventilation spaces. So it's gets covered in some pretty nasty dust

My garage is also a workshop..... Dust, swarf, and sparks...

Exactly, dust, dirt and believe it or not, spider crap! That's the little white blobs on the paint which are a bugger to get off

Answer - to keep away dust and insect droppings.

Two thick fluffy bed sheets are ideal.

Oh and don't forget to keep the garage dehumidifier running. The wet weather means humidity is now over 80%, so brake discs are being attacked. That is, us lesser souls with steel discs.

Ah so that's what those little white spots are..... Every days a school day

[MaverickAM9]

Ummmm, I'm looking outside right this minute and she's sat in horizontal rain

Do you fancy selling the insert ?

Don't use that as an excuse as to why it's grey!

[SLacKer]

It doesn't live outside of course but wanted some photos of it in pyjamas




Anyone ever washed one of these?

[MaverickAM9]

Slacker, is that an external cover?

[XJR500bhp]

I don't beleive you can get the fancy external cover with the stitching? To be honest you probably wouldn't want Aston plastered on the outside if it's sat on your drive.

Regarding the hood cover, just ask Aston

[SLacKer]

No it is for indoor use but wanted to get some photos of it on the car which happened to be outside anyway and the light is better for taking photos.
