Indoor Car Cover

[Mikey]

Ordered an indoor car cover from a UK based company called "Specialised Car Covers" who are based in Bradford, West Yorkshire. The quality is very good and fits the car like a glove. The one I ordered is black with red piping around the edge, it is very soft with a fleecy internal surface and is designed to fit the exact shape and contour of the car. It comes with it's own stuff sack which is made of the same material as the cover and looks the buisness. I will get a few pics up to show you what it looks like but I do recommend the company as they are very helpful, catering for all types of vehicles and wether you want indoor or outdoor covers. The price will vary but I paid just over £200 for mine and I'd say it is worth every penny.

They look very good - I've got a half car cover for outside from BMW - fits over just the roof; helps protect against frost and dirt on the fabric top (and means I don't have to scrape ice off the car in the mornings!). Cost about £70 inc VAT.

Thought about one of these how is it fixed to the car only i was worried about marking the paint with the straps i have seen on other covers

3 things hold it in place:

1. You pop it under the windscreen wipers
2. Little metal hooks that go under the door handles - there are protective flaps on the cover that go between the hook and the handle - so no danger of any damage
3. Two magnets that hold the rear down on the boot lid

All of this held it tightly in place during the high winds over the weekend. I guess the wing-mirror 'gloves' help to keep it on too. It comes with a bag for it as well. It's obviously a very good fit as it's a BMW item. The pictures on the BMW website seem to be wrong, they show hooks to hold the rear section under the bootlid, I guess they changed the design.

Did well to stay on in those winds the weekend
