Looking for a cover for my 911 (57 plate) 2s (with a spoiler).
The car going to be parked outside throughout the winter.
Any links would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

The problem with outdoor car covers is that your paint will get scratched if there is any dirt on the paint or interior of the car cover.
If you're going to leave it outside, you may wish to consider a sealant such as C1 from Gtechniq that will last for > 1 year and protect the paint from UV, salt, bird muck etc.

Look at specialised car covers. These don't scratch your paintwork but then again they are more expensive but you get what you pay for when it comes to car covers

I personally wouldn't trust any product to protect my paintwork from bird lime. My parking slots are subject to tree fallout as well as bird ste!
I have used a cover from Specialised Covers for nearly 2 years now and my car is immaculate.
Agreed you have to ensure that the car is clean before putting it to 'bed' but that's the price I pay for not currently having a garage.
Buy a proper cover and apply some common sense and your car will be fine.
