Default Found A Nice Car Cover... Inexpensive and functional

Gave the car a wash last weekend, still looks good...Found a nice cover for it just in case it's cold or hot.






Cheers,

Sweet deal, I'm going to grab one. No room in the garage, and there's sap everywhere that seems to be drawn to my car immediately after a wash.

This morning, the top cover was totally wet, open it up and felt the inside, DRY, very happy and it works as advertised.


Cheers,
Louis

Good to know. I'll be sure and test it against the first snowstorm we get up here. I'm sure it won't be long now..

Moving to JBLM, Washington next month so this will come in handy as the Audi will sit in the driveway

The cover looks great! Any idea how much it weighs Louis? Just to give me an idea if it's worth shipping it overseas.

Cheers,
Paul

Never been a fan of outdoor car covers. Seen a few detail jobs have to be redone from even a tight cover on a show car being transported from wind making the material rub on the paint. I'm not sure if that would equate to long term concern on a car parked in the driveway from normal breezes moving the material on the paint.
