fireandskill1 (Mike) on here has one Ryan, his fit's the 3dr perfectly, and certainly wont scratch the paint as his is concours champion!

I'll see if he know's where it came from as it came with the car IIRC

His fit's like a glove mate! Really covers the car nicely and shouldn't be hassle to mess about putting on from what I can see! lol

Yes I do have an outdoor one and my mate (I do have some!) has an indoor one for his MG. Very good valve for money and their after sales service is also excelent.

My mate’s zip went when it was out of warranty and they replaced it for just the cost of the postage. I've put a small rip in the outer skin of one of the side panels in mine, caught on the brick wall, and the quote to replace a complete side is just £50.

My Carcoon is superb - worth every penny and it was about £400 from Demon Tweeks IIRC (must have had it 8 years now). Also got a Specialised Car Covers indoor cover, £200 that was and again, worth every penny.
