E85 - Best Car cover for a garage.

Post by Knotty » Fri Nov 27, 2020 12:48 pm

Hi Z4. This is my first post..! I have a z4 e85 3.0 si roadster, which I bought in the summer and adore! I am looking for advice on a good cover, it lives in the garage but has been getting dusty and some birds seem to find their way in too..

Any advice would be amazing. Thanks!!

That one looks very nice! The new set of tires from ************* for the pickup truck are getting installed this week and got to get a good cover next.

My Medium sized cover arrived in December for my E85. Fits beautifully, except for the ariel but it is perfect and well priced. Would 100% recommend for garage use.

Inspired by this thread I ordered a M-size Cosmos too. Quality seems nice, perfect size for the E85 and wish it only had pockets for the mirrors like the OEM outdoor cover has.

As its only to keep the dust off the car, I bought two king size cotton sheets, had a local stitch shop join them together.
Draped over it works a treat.

So I bought a 35is with all the toys to play with. :thumbsup:
