    Car Cover Recommendations

    Morning benders

    What car covers do you chaps use on your CSL's?

    I'm hoping to put the CSL into hibernation in the next couple of weeks, so need a decent outdoor cover, the car will then be moved into the garage in a month or so, so will be in a warm and dry place.

    Does anyone have any recommendations for a good outdoor / indoor cover?

    Also, I'm assuming its safe to plug in a C-TEK or similar trickle charger under a cover? (sorry if thats a stupid question!)

    Cheers

      I use an indoor/outdoor breathable cover, mainly used for indoor but designed for outdoors enabling it to breath and prevent it sweating when the sun eventually comes out!

      Cant remember what i paid, but its coming out @ £101.77 now.

        That does look like it fits well Mark, is it ok for outdoor use as well?

          I've heard that putting a cover on outdoors isn't great as the wind can move the cover around (even a little), leading to rubbing.

          Has anyone found this, or is it an old wives tale?

            A decent outdoor cover should have a securing strap to prevent too much movement (mine runs on the underside of the car complete with a small padlock). I think the effect of movement otherwise must be minimal and more for those who keep their original window stickers on their windscreen to show it has not been changed - come out you blighters!

              I brought the outdoor cover silver version to marks, mind you as I use mine all the time, ive used it 3 times in a year :hahaha: ...

              Works well even on the windy days, is snug enough not to move around much, and doesn't mark the paint

              Lol you can tell the last time I used it, the Rays were on and still in the original colour !

                  The quality of the wraps we're seeing on here has gone right down.

                      I've heard VERY good things about the Classic Additions covers, I actually have an older Halfords one that is good but I'm sure there's better :thumbs:

                        I use a specialist Car Covers indoor one.

                        No complaints so far and had it for almost 2 years.
