Carcoon storage

[s.mac]

I may be losing my storage facility so I may need a solution.

Has anyone got a carcoon for the CSL, if so what size does it go in? I know it won't fit in size2

Cesil is stored in a Size 4

Why do you think you need a carcoon ?

Why do you think you need a carcoon ?

Because it is the best type available I'd guess.

ive had one for years but & I'm not convinced they are the best thing. Used to store my 1973 Porsche in it ( when I had an old damp garage) , but now with a decent timber garage with plenty of airflow through it + a dehumidiifier has kept all my cars in far better condition ... the carcoon has been kept on the shelf now for 3 years +

Of course it all depends where the car is going to be stored .. as I said, when I had an old damp garage the carcoon was a better option

because it may need to go outside

Are they noisy?? its my last option but if its outside I would rather it be enclosed than just a standard outside cover.

If you are going t0 leave it outside get some Damp traps from Asda, as my car started to go mouldy inside without them. :bigcry:

Cheers Craig, that's not good
It would only be for a short time and hopefully it won't happen

It happened during the warm weather too, so at a £1 each worth getting a few and leaving them on the floor mats that's what I do :thumbs:

I have one Steve. Will post up details in a bit with some pics if you want to see it in depth?

If you can also tell me if they are loud, I wouldn't want to piss the neighbours off

Steve -

You will need size 4. Size is perfect and walls don't touch the car which is good. They can make you a custom size if preferred.

They do an indoor and outdoor version. The outdoor version is double skinned and extremely durable. Material is excellent and overall build and quality is outstanding and made in the UK.

Mine lived in an outdoor version last year for winter storage solutions as it got eliminated from the double garage.

I was amazed how it coped in the very high winds and through the torrential rain and cold. Haven't experienced snow fall on it yet but I imagine it will just deflate to roof height with snow laying on top and then raise again once melted or even brushed off.

Twin fans are almost silent (like what's found in your computer to keep things cool). They are powered up by the build in battery conditioner which comes with the kit so just one power lead to plug in to the mains with one cable going to the boot for battery and one to the fans.
Cost of running is supposedly only 1p per day with charger and fans on.

As mentioned above just get yourself a couple of dehumidifier packs to pop inside the car to help take away any odour or vapour during storage.

Car came out 6 months later rust free and dry as a bone. Very impressed and highly recommended!

Few pics to give an idea of set up:
