i wouldent recommend any after using one! cant remember what one i had but it was fully breathable and lined and cost 140 pounds but caused so much condensation it was un real even on the dry sunny ish days the car was really wet under the cover also things really started to rust under the bonnet! better to leave them with out a cover if out side so the air can get round them

best covers available are from a company called classic additions.

as said though, if left outside better without any cover as they trap moisture and can cause accelerated rust formation.

is there space for a lean-too or car port?

I wouldn't use a Classic Additions cover, mine fell apart & they wouldn't do nothing about it.

I'd personall invest in a outdoor carcoon or as said, if you have enough room for a car port.

Classic additions seems to get good ratings, I have a Covercraft personally, they are tailored to the individual cars and are lockable with a chain.

an outdoor carcoon is the best option.. then once you have a garage you can sell it on.. they fetch good money still..
