I bought this cover as my car was going to a garage to have some paintwork repaired and I was going to be out of the country for 10 days and it would be under cover until I came back,subsequently my ten day trip turned into 7 months and thankfully the garage was only too happy to store my car and use the cover to protect it. What a godsend the cover was and has been ever since, Im using it again now as it's sap season and it's protecting my paintwork again, a sound investment for anyone wishing to prolong their cars looks and paintwork.
