Morning all,

Woke up this morning thinking about purchasing something like a car cover to protect my beloved Sport from this cruel world we live in..... :roll:

It's currently sitting in a garage, which is great, but it doesn't half get dusty!! Would a car cover help to solve this problem? Also, if I had to keep the car outdoors, would a cover help to protect against any elements at all?

Basically, what I want to know is: Are they worth it and if so, which one to go for.

Anyone with any good or bad experiences with these (or anyone with an opinion), please let me know what you think.

Many thanks.

Hi Phatz,

If your storing your car indoors or only use it once a week defo go for a soft dust cover.

However I wouldnt waste my money on an outside cover unless you are storing long term and don't have a garage. Then you can secure it properly to prevent movement. It's just way too much arsing about otherwise, heed the voice of frustrated experience. Just keep waxing!

I have one for the Sport Evo, it's an indoor one and is brilliant. Got it from classic additions, cost £250
