LeeT Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 i looked at them but they were about £90 I bought the resistanz cover from Argos which isnt a bad fit at all and only cost £35. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uk-rich Posted October 1, 2006 Author Share Posted October 1, 2006 it also comes with elasticated rope and plastic hooks to secure it, you may get away with the smaller size (x large), but its your money right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazz1 Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 it also comes with elasticated rope and plastic hooks to secure it, you may get away with the smaller size (x large), but its your money right can water get through there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uk-rich Posted October 1, 2006 Author Share Posted October 1, 2006 apparantly not, reflects the heat, breathable. go and have a look on the box at halfords, its everything proof, apart from this http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=84386 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mas Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 it looks like you have a garage, what would you need a cover for unless you re not using the car very often. I have a water proof one for free from the guys in china that I deal with, never used it so far though, still in its carry case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gaz1 Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 it also comes with elasticated rope and plastic hooks to secure it, you may get away with the smaller size (x large), but its your money right mate make sure you keep the rope tight if outside, i bought one of those and did not tighten the rope, and it rubbed my paint down on a windy day:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 Looking at the pics my first thought is "Gas mark 8 for 30 minutes". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merckx Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 Looking at the pics my first thought is "Gas mark 8 for 30 minutes". Just what I was going to say. At least the silver material will keep reflect the heat away from the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
