Yikes a˜° my car is stored outside on gravel wrapped in breathable car cover till winters out when I can build a garage. Is it safe or should I rent a garage for the next couple of months?
Been sh*tting myself about this the past month

You could put a few big bags of then moisture absorption needs in it to stop the condensation gathering on the roof
Something like these wouldn't hurt.

I already have 4 of them in the car, 1 on each seat an have the rear quarters open to let it breath. Was thinking of buying desiccant bags for cars and blankets to place on top of the seats to further prevent damp destroying the inside.
On the outside I don't really know what I can do other than having breathable car covers on it. Maybe placing dehumidifiers in the boot will help

could you rent a council garage, they are about £9 a week iirc
Private garages are going for £25 pw minimum and they don't seem to be in good shape. I only need it for 4 months at most to see the bad weather through as I'll have my one built by then so not sure if council do short term rentals. I'll give them a call tomorrow for further details.

Try your local Lok N Store depots, or similar.

Who was the clown that wanted to install a dehumidifier in his garage?
