recently i have bought two car covers (ment to be water proof) and both have leaked water straight through when its rained, then the water wont, dry after because its under the cover!! its so fustrating!!! can anyone tell me where i can buy a propper cover that is waterproof even if i hose it down!!!!
I'm not intrested in all this breatherble crap it does goes straight through the breath holes.

cheers

 

I had one from Argos that was Ł25 and that didnt let any water in, wasnt breathable though. I just used to take it off once a week to dry everything out.

 

bttt

 

I bought a cover from halfords for 45 quid. Looked shit but they said it protects from the elements. Came out next morning, cover was stuck to the car and shell had rain water in the footwells.

Took it back that day and paid the Ł25 difference and got the Du Pont cover. Shit hot quality, had no probs at all. Fits perfect and well worth the Ł70. Looks like its wrapped in tin foil from a distance. lol

 

are you saying the Ł70 one at halfords is the top job with no water leaks at all?

cheers mate

 

Its a Du Pont one and i haven't had a single complaint with it. When i bought the pants blue one that leaked, it came with a crap piece of string that went under the car and tied to the other side to stop it blowing away, the Du Pont one comes with 2 bungees. 1 that goes from one side to the other and one that goes from front to back.

Make sure you get the one to suit the size of your car. They come in small, medium and large. I got the small one for my fiesta and it couldn't fit any better.

 

here's some pics i took just now so you can see what it looks like, well worth the pennies

 

ohhh im going to have to get me one of those!!!

 

thanks for the pics mate i'll go to halfords in a minute!!!

 

its a du pont tivec cover mate bought 2 myself when they where clearing a local store out they are great never leak

 

we got ours from here http://www.cover-zone.com/product_range.php

they are great, dont let any water in (we have one on the mk1 and escort rs), they are a bit more expensive, so depends what car you got and how well you want to protect it

 

i got one of the halfrauds one for the saff. i got it before i had a garage and they are waterproof. machine washable too for when they get dirty. i still use it but in the garage lol.
