the lightweight bmw your talking about is the one that left rubbing marks on mine after I had it detailed, bmw refunded me and went straight to classic additions! Great cover and the three straps hold it down very well

Classic Additions ultimate Outdoor cover is the one I use too. Great cover and may know of someone selling one if you still need it?

I havd ordered the Specialized covers one now. I'll post my thoughts in a month when it turns up.

I use a Classic Additions Ultimate Outdoor cover, it's 4 layer, fully breathable and waterproof, comes with three straps for securing the cover down, i've had mine a couple of years and being quite heavyweight it's very good for winter storage.

You know this already but never cover a dirty car, not unless you fancy machine polishing all the swirl marks out after!

+1 For classic additions.

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
