Outdoor car covers

Post by nitin_s1 » Fri May 03, 2013 6:24 pm

Anyone using any car covers? What are the best ones?

Some leave scratches? Ruin paint work?

I need to cover the car while I take bumpers, skirts, exhaust off. If I leave the car without these the pikeys would try and take the whole car while no one is home. :evil: :lol:

Ok imagine this.

All the bumpers, sides skirts, headlights etc are off the car. I don't want the pikeys to come and steal the car coz they might think its been scraped or something. :? :x

I used a £24.99 car cover from Argos about 4 years ago and damaged the paintwork on my red lude. I ended up taking them to court and won a substantial amount from them!

My advice don't use one! ;)

why not cover the car in bed sheets before you put a car cover on it?
