Outdoor cover recommendations
I am thinking of getting an outdoor cover for my CSL for when it is outside over the winter. I am aware of the issues with making sure that the car is properly clean first, but does anybody have any recommendations for makes of good tailored covers, or any experience of using them?

I bought an m3 outdoor car cover what a pile of shite ended up rubbing the paint work and £300 later on a wet sand detail from a friend bmw refunded me the cost.

We did have a group buy on the go last year but it came to nothing.

I really rate the outdoor Carcoon as an over winter storage solution. It's a bit of a faff putting it on your own, but with two peeps it's a lot easier. After six months taking the car out afterwards it was exactly the same as the day it went in, no dust or signs of condensation, no paint rub marks at all. 10/10

Saw Craig's csl 3 weeks ago and have to say it was looking grand. Had the rarest set of cups in the northern hemisphere. |
