I need to store my 944 S2 outside for a few weeks, thinking of buying a car cover for him. Any recommendations?

I'm looking at buying two covers from these guys, they were at TIPEC and the prices seem to be more than sensible and I havent found anyone cheaper for a 4 layer outside cover!

Link should be into 944 covers

Got mine from Specialised Car Covers (01943 864646)...it's beatheable and tailored, cost about £190 with a discount at the NEC show, coming up in November. Very happy with it, nice tight fit, no flapping!
 
Take a look here too for some advice, was very pleased with mine and it is tailored for the S2

I got mine from here, I think its the same cover as above only cheaper. http://www.carcoverzone.co.uk/monsoon-waterproof-outdoor-cover-porsche-turbo-p-707.html

I few things I have noticed about covers:

1. Dont put a cover on wet or dirty car. Try to keep the cover a clean as possible on the inside.
2. They are better than nothing if leaving you car outside but beware of leaving it covered for long periods of time, dirt and grit can get underneath and in windy conditions will scratch your paint. About 1-2 months max, then wash the car and re-cover.
3. Dispite my covers claim it is breathable I often find condensation underneath, usually in winter. Not a huge problem but I wouldnt leave it under the cover wet for long periods of time.
4. Dont pull the covers 'ears' for the mirrors, its a weak area and the stitching breaks. Mine was returned and replaced because of this.
5. If you have garage space your lucky and should use that instead.[:D][:D][:D]

Cheers for that Gordon :)

ive been looking for this link for ages, I had one of these before for my old S, brilliant fit and if I waxed it before fitting the cover, if I removed it a month later it was still like id done it an hour ago :)

great price.
