Watch some of the ones on Ebay to.
I bought a "Heavy Duty" one for my M3 which didn't last 5 minutes , ripped like a piece of paper

I've got the Machine Mart silver one for my cab, soft on the inside so it doesn't scratch the paint and waterproof and breathable on the outside. Good value IIRC - about 25 quid. If you're leaving a car outside, it's not worth spending too much as they're easily damaged by other cars etc.

I found a £300 Covercraft one second hand on eBay for £40. Works superbly.

The secret is to look out for ones tailored to a similar sized, but reasonably rare car. Mine was made to measure for a Triumph Stag, but fits the cab perfectly.
