Pleased with new purchase

[sidpinup]

I just bought a Leven Hood Cover for the Tamora. The Tuscan one fits perfectly as they don't make a specific Tam one. It keeps my baby perfectly dry, something I have struggled with despite replacing all the seals etc. very pleased.

So have I! Great minds think alike.

I think its a tiny bit big (but only a tiny bit). What are you attaching the velcro straps to the front to?

It is slightly big but does the job well. I tried tucking the front under the bonnet but I figured that was just directing rain strait onto the engine so I just have it over the bonnet and the straps not attached.

Obviously I cannot see your new cover, and I don't want to raise a hind leg and piss on your shiny new lamppost, so to speak, but my Halfrauds elasticated medium car cover fits really snugly on my Chimaera, but unless it is well tied down at both ends it ends up in Lincolnshire on a windy night......and that's a good five miles away!

That's not a problem as it's heavy oilskin type fabric and it has clips around the mirrors and a bit that fastens into the boot so very secure. I had a halfords one but it wasn't that waterproof so I binned it.

I'm heading the same way as you, Sid. When I first got the car I thought I should cover the whole car. I now realize I would be better to cover the passenger compartment and not have fabric flapping in the wind on the paintwork.
I need to order some new wiper arms from Leven tomorrow. Sounds like my order is growing......

I had a full cover but you couldn't use it unless the car was spotless or it would scratch so the Leven is the perfect solution. Happy shopping!

Ditto. That is exactly where I am on this.

Completely agree that it was a good buy!
