Hello All,

My poor E30 has no garage for it to be tucked away in over the winter.
I have a really poor halfrauds cover over it at the moment but it is by no means waterproof.

I'm after a good quality WATERPROOF cover. Seen a few on line but what do people on here use? And if anyone is no longer using one do they have one for sale?

Thanks
james

Do a search for covers, you'll find plenty of posts up already. Then maybe put a post in the wanted section.

I've got a stormforce one - decided on it after reading through people's experiences on here.

Not intending to be funny or arsey but this is one of the questions that gets regularly asked - you'll find a lot of detail if you do a search.

I'm using the Halfords all weather cover, cost about £70 and is very good. I needed a totally waterproof one as my cabrio roof isn't exactly watertight. The large is as near to a perfect fit for an E30 as it gets without being tailored.

Large should just fit the E30 Touring you think? Wouldn't want it to be too baggy, which the XL may be
