( Speaker ) but at 40k wont be an easy purchase. The initial limited production run of cars will no doubt be snapped up quickly and then hopefully the price should come down as full production kicks in. We sized up the car against our current range and found that the same pattern we put on the standard 500e will fit, again with charge flap option. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgU3n-Ri2aIjanJOxQa88xyGq_NywQIDn-VZFIawi3g-GzjMpqmPCeOGtEmC-2dVUcSB6yvrK6n13oPvc-tvptcnL9FsMqOXLRLeuXMMu0vLVi8How-J7x5Zd4NLq3Nmke9p5I76YhhZg7AdqbNvrohQ_86oxPJ1pbiD_i4bYws1zRJhCyW6WPx3_jRZA/s480/328548482_841953617102881_7308806404957260602_n_480x480.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="360" data-original-width="480" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgU3n-Ri2aIjanJOxQa88xyGq_NywQIDn-VZFIawi3g-GzjMpqmPCeOGtEmC-2dVUcSB6yvrK6n13oPvc-tvptcnL9FsMqOXLRLeuXMMu0vLVi8How-J7x5Zd4NLq3Nmke9p5I76YhhZg7AdqbNvrohQ_86oxPJ1pbiD_i4bYws1zRJhCyW6WPx3_jRZA/s320/328548482_841953617102881_7308806404957260602_n_480x480.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="rte rte--indented-images" itemprop="articleBody" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; caret-color: rgb(102, 102, 102); color: #666666; font-family: Karla, HelveticaNeue, "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px; text-align: start;"><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Call us on 01744 633985 for more information on car covers, indoor or outdoor for the Fiat 500e or new Abarth version.

<p style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none; font-kerning: none;">We can all agree 2020 wasn't the best year; Lockdowns, social distancing, never-ending rules and to top it all off... Car theft is on the rise. Lockdown’s have turned drive- ways into window shopping opportunities for car thieves and Steve Barrett, head of Direct Line, has advised purchasing anti-theft equipment to protect your car (<b>Robinson, J, Wright J</b>). 65% of all vehicles are stolen from the owner’s address … and the figure rises to 71% for premium vehicles (<b>Orry, J, 2020,) </b></span></p>

This allows them to steal keyless cars in seconds… just by opening the doors. BMW’s, Mercedes and Range Rovers are all top of the list for targeting (<b>Walne, T, 2020</b>)</span></p>
<p style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 14px;"><span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none; font-kerning: none;"></span><br /></p>

(<b>Orry, J, 2020</b>)</span></p>

<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="3m5qu-0-0" style="direction: ltr; font-family: inherit; position: relative;">
<span data-offset-key="3m5qu-0-0" style="font-family: inherit;">Just a few pointers when looking to buy covers online...</span></div>
</div>
<div class="" data-block="true" data-editor="6t9um" data-offset-key="67nkm-0-0" style="caret-color: rgb(28, 30, 33); color: #1c1e21; font-family: system-ui, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, ".SFNSText-Regular", sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="67nkm-0-0" style="direction: ltr; font-family: inherit; position: relative;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">A) Any company that sells you a cover on the basis that super fast delivery as the main selling point rather than the quality of fit and product, clearly shouldn't be selling covers.</span></div>
</div>
<div class="" data-block="true" data-editor="6t9um" data-offset-key="58ee9-0-0" style="caret-color: rgb(28, 30, 33); color: #1c1e21; font-family: system-ui, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, ".SFNSText-Regular", sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="58ee9-0-0" style="direction: ltr; font-family: inherit; position: relative;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">B) Any company with no land / earth address has something to hide. Especially those claiming to be UK companies, but are registered in the USA or elsewhere overseas. We know of several.</span></div>
</div>
<div class="" data-block="true" data-editor="6t9um" data-offset-key="9ikm8-0-0" style="caret-color: rgb(28, 30, 33); color: #1c1e21; font-family: system-ui, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, ".SFNSText-Regular", sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="9ikm8-0-0" style="direction: ltr; font-family: inherit; position: relative;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">C) A good cover should last years so waiting a few weeks for a custom made one to arrive should be compared with the life of the quality product you are buying cheap and getting quick. Not to mention the damage it could cause to your pride and joy.</span></div>
</div>
<div class="" data-block="true" data-editor="6t9um" data-offset-key="ar1ti-0-0" style="caret-color: rgb(28, 30, 33); color: #1c1e21; font-family: system-ui, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, ".SFNSText-Regular", sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="ar1ti-0-0" style="direction: ltr; font-family: inherit; position: relative;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">D) Charging customers a re-stocking fee for returns, hidden deep in the T&Cs was outlawed years ago under an EU directive so should not still be happening.</span></div>
</div>
<div class="" data-block="true" data-editor="6t9um" data-offset-key="f4jik-0-0" style="caret-color: rgb(28, 30, 33); color: #1c1e21; font-family: system-ui, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, ".SFNSText-Regular", sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="f4jik-0-0" style="direction: ltr; font-family: inherit; position: relative;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">E) Any company displaying lots of Glowing Reviews on their website that are clearly doctored, when third party reviews of the same company like Yell, Google or Trustpilot are terrible.</span></div>
</div>
<div class="" data-block="true" data-editor="6t9um" data-offset-key="cu0kc-0-0" style="caret-color: rgb(28, 30, 33); color: #1c1e21; font-family: system-ui, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, ".SFNSText-Regular", sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="cu0kc-0-0" style="direction: ltr; font-family: inherit; position: relative;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">F) Any company claiming to be the UK biggest supplier, largest stockist is clearly lying.</span></div>
<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="cu0kc-0-0" style="direction: ltr; font-family: inherit; position: relative;">
<span data-offset-key="cu0kc-0-0" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="cu0kc-0-0" style="direction: ltr; font-family: inherit; position: relative;">
<span data-offset-key="cu0kc-0-0" style="font-family: inherit;">We could go on and on but will leave it there for now.</span></div>

Our long awaited custom fit pattern for the new Toyota C-HR is now ready. We took a C-HR and the cover down to local team rooms in Rufford to photograph and get some feedback from visitors.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The cover fitted the car beautifully as expected, inch perfect, and the pocket on the roof for the shark fin antenna was spot on and always a nice touch as this is the point a normal, generic fit cover will wear and eventually tear over time.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The fit at the rear was a particularly nice and as this car has a rear spoiler fitted, it was important to get that right from the start.</div>

Feedback from the locals and visitors to the tea rooms was all positive. We even took some orders on the day for a couple of other cars. Being British designed and manufactured also went down well a in this day and age where so much is mass produced overseas.</div>

<br />
But when it comes to inner linings on outdoor car covers, Soft, is bad. Why? Because anything soft will....<br />
<br />
a) Attract and Hold micro dirt particles, small enough so you cant see them but large enough to mark a car over time and become impossible to remove completely.<br />
<br />
b) Any damp and heavy air passing through the breathable fabric which would normally just settle on the car, then vent away once the temperature rises will in fact end up making the soft lining wet. And it will stay wet. Imagine a Wet sweatshirt made from fleecy material hanging on a washing line, once its wet, it will take days to dry out completely, if at all.<br />
<br />
c) A Soft inner will inhibit the covers ability to breathe, especially if it has a Polyurathane outer. We have seen these type of covers with thick fleecy inners cause problems over the last 15 years which is why we dont sell them.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhN5gWvJ2xZcHmmq2hDn84yXj9LqWWyrg4EwW7SiVgNO8I9mkTu39p3xNUi4-Y6a0U2ytkibLz5mpDMxZlDJji2263eUodL7ftknv38oUKi2tYCu9fXuSHdWKUDigB0nO2XGLYRSEbxMwKF/s1600/towel-2729287_960_720.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="960" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhN5gWvJ2xZcHmmq2hDn84yXj9LqWWyrg4EwW7SiVgNO8I9mkTu39p3xNUi4-Y6a0U2ytkibLz5mpDMxZlDJji2263eUodL7ftknv38oUKi2tYCu9fXuSHdWKUDigB0nO2XGLYRSEbxMwKF/s400/towel-2729287_960_720.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
So, ideally the inner needs to be non woven, brushed or smooth and not fleecy in any way so dirt cant cling to it.<br />
<br />
More importantly the fit of an outdoor cover needs to be extremely good, especially when the weather is bad. . Always go <a href="https://www.coveryourcar.co.uk/cielo.html">custom fit</a> if you can.<br />

<br />
We looked carefully at 4x4s and in general vehicles that sit high above the ground. These vehicles always cause you a dilemma because you can cover the bodywork but conventional covers always tend to leave the wheels exposed and a huge area under the car where air can funnel and cause issues.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8R_4jFNi2bon32ued8sz6iWzFkGQ6uf_5R_QhdIko2ozM51VnrHZ7Ylj-JOtp5VAOlruymsGc6CBErI8_n1VRgJkjUF8WaCny7uXCy_antI4_mQ86VQYHYbw3CI_MtTICaW1wlBv1wXto/s1600/IMG_3008-2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="478" data-original-width="640" height="239" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8R_4jFNi2bon32ued8sz6iWzFkGQ6uf_5R_QhdIko2ozM51VnrHZ7Ylj-JOtp5VAOlruymsGc6CBErI8_n1VRgJkjUF8WaCny7uXCy_antI4_mQ86VQYHYbw3CI_MtTICaW1wlBv1wXto/s320/IMG_3008-2.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
So having already sought to improve the ever popular <a href="https://www.coveryourcar.co.uk/stormforce.htm" target="_blank">Stormforce Cover</a>, which we started to sell and where in fact the first company ever to sell this cover back in 2005, we decided to look at the 4x4 issue and seek to improve the conventional cover by enhancing the tension hemline skirt, making it deeper.<br />
<br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiiKqLruDb7I_HmNDmf5W9H-JjcXmDlq887Ck0NI0is4xDSt8OUldw1RCPGpl6jGG3gzDo-jqLt69Eqjv6hbwIiitMPEGXavJtGPoaHJ1Eb6xV0SeChklsROJ_FyyRKe58ql3ZBx5hjKpAN/s1600/IMG_3009-1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="478" data-original-width="640" height="239" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiiKqLruDb7I_HmNDmf5W9H-JjcXmDlq887Ck0NI0is4xDSt8OUldw1RCPGpl6jGG3gzDo-jqLt69Eqjv6hbwIiitMPEGXavJtGPoaHJ1Eb6xV0SeChklsROJ_FyyRKe58ql3ZBx5hjKpAN/s320/IMG_3009-1.JPG" width="320" /></a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><br /></td></tr>
</tbody></table>
So this enhanced, deeper hemline skirt means you can now apply two types on tension to the cover on a 4x4, the conventional elasticated hem with under straps and the extra 360 degree bungee cord with runs through the skirt. Great for longer term storage and peace of mind. <br />
<br />
Add in that we also include a set of extra long, interconnecting over straps as standard and we feel you have one one the best cover solutions on the market for your 4x4.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #8d8d8d; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="caret-color: rgb(141, 141, 141); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Your car is your pride and joy and you are looking to protect it but aren't sure a cover is the best solution. In some instances it may not be the best solution...</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #8d8d8d; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="caret-color: rgb(141, 141, 141); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #8d8d8d; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="caret-color: rgb(141, 141, 141); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Some basic advice on buying a car cover</b></span></span></div>
<ul style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1.3em; margin-top: 1.3em; padding-left: 22px;">
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 11px 0px;"><span style="color: #8d8d8d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Start by asking yourself. How often do I use my car? If its every day and you don't have time to clean your car each time you want to fit the cover, then probably a cover is not a good idea. Practically you aren't going to have time to wash, clean, dry your car after a hard day at work, or if its dark for example. In our <span style="caret-color: rgb(141, 141, 141);">experience</span> the right cover wont scratch a car, but dirt, trapped between the cover and car may, so only cover your car when its clean.</span></li>
</ul>
<ul style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1.3em; margin-top: 1.3em; padding-left: 22px;">
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #8d8d8d; font-size: 16px; margin: 11px 0px;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So you've decided a cover is for you. Where and what to buy? OK so always buy the best cover you can. These will be priced accordingly as covers come in 3 distinct variations</span></li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 11px 0px;"><span style="color: #8d8d8d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1) Generic fit - Usually cheap, not a good fit, hatch back shape, saloon <span style="caret-color: rgb(141, 141, 141);">shape, usually</span> no mirror pockets.</span></li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #8d8d8d; font-size: 16px; margin: 11px 0px;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2) Semi Fitted - Usually Sat On a Shelf, Mass produced. Chances are if you can get a cover in a 24 hrs its not fully tailored, its semi fitted. ( although we do stock some bespoke fit covers). Companies boasting "Large Stocks" basically mean the covers are already been mass produced, usually overseas, maybe even branded up as something else and more expensive, available from multiple suppliers and designed to fit the shape of a car rather than the specific car.</span></li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #8d8d8d; font-size: 16px; margin: 11px 0px;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">3) Bespoke, Custom Fit - Normally these take weeks to make but you know the cover will fit inch perfect, made to a pattern taken from the actual make, model and year of vehicle. Always the best solution.</span></li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #8d8d8d; font-size: 16px; margin: 11px 0px;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When purchasing, do some research from the company you are buying from. Are they UK based?, how long have they been in business?, what is the support, guarantee like on the product? Look also for photos of the cover you are buying if possible fitted to the car you have.</span></li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #8d8d8d; font-size: 16px; margin: 11px 0px;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Example shown below is a Bespoke made, custom fit <a href="https://www.coveryourcar.co.uk/cielo.html" target="_blank">Cielo Cover</a> for a Subaru WRX 2017 Saloon, Fully tailored over the various spoilers, even comes with a pocket for the shark fin antenna on the roof where a normal, generic or semi fitted cover would wear through.</span></li>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #8d8d8d; font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So now you are looking to buy a cover, either for indoor or outdoor use or both, what are your options?</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #8d8d8d; font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #8d8d8d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">You should initially take into consideration the <span style="caret-color: rgb(141, 141, 141);">environment</span> in which the car and cover is going to sit. If its <span style="caret-color: rgb(141, 141, 141);">outside in summer or in a hot climate then you want something reflective. If its in a nice warm garage then <a href="https://www.coveryourcar.co.uk/softech.html" target="_blank">something fleecy and shape hugging</a> may be what you want. If its going to be used in the depths of Winter then something heavy duty, <a href="https://www.coveryourcar.co.uk/advantex.html" target="_blank">waterproof and breathable</a> will be needed.</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #8d8d8d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="caret-color: rgb(141, 141, 141);"><br /></span></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #8d8d8d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">More and more customers are covering their cars now for security reasons. With the huge rise in prices on classic cars now and the ability to easily drive away a key less modern car, old skool tech is back! Covering your car up so its out of site from passers by, opportunists, google maps and the like is a good idea. Fitting an integrated <a href="https://www.coveryourcar.co.uk/store/home.php?cat=875" target="_blank">alarm</a> to the cover is also a good idea, this will warn you if it's removed from the car and scare off anyone close by. It will certainly wake you up before anyone even gets to the car itself.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #8d8d8d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="caret-color: rgb(141, 141, 141);"><br /></span></span></div>

This may be an under ground parking at your apartment or flat, or longer term parking at an airport or place of work for example.<br />
<br />
<b>a) Warm, Dry Undergound Parking. </b><br />
<br />
Basically you could use any type of indoor or outdoor breathable cover here, but if security is also your issue, you will want to think about preventing someone from taking your nice cover or worst case messing with your car. Ideally something lockable, with an alarm or preferably 360 degree tension skirt. Normally these kind of communal garages create lots of dust, blown up into the air from the floor by other people starting up their cars. Ideally something like an Alarmed Voyager PLUS Cover from us would be the best solution. if its totally secure then maybe a nice custom fleece cover would be great way to protect the car as well as impress your fellow neighbours.<br />

<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1t0GRQUwovsxwoXgSQ4SZgEO3YFeYDQsJF_MaXjoTrAo7IwtCWF_w4NBMIsxUEtYud3HjUindKqEM_rS_A_omo2X0qatjr1p49Wfi9MOfSUM3eYjzx7Ic1uTg-gEM6d-y58C617O4W4JC/s1600/image3-11.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1t0GRQUwovsxwoXgSQ4SZgEO3YFeYDQsJF_MaXjoTrAo7IwtCWF_w4NBMIsxUEtYud3HjUindKqEM_rS_A_omo2X0qatjr1p49Wfi9MOfSUM3eYjzx7Ic1uTg-gEM6d-y58C617O4W4JC/s320/image3-11.jpeg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Alternatively one of our Two Tone custom fit Cielo Covers would also work well. These can be alarmed and locked and come with 4 x under body straps for a better, more secure fit.<br />

<br /></div>
<br />
<b>b) Outdoor Car Park, say at work or airport.</b><br />
<br />
Again something lockable or alarmed but maybe more heavy duty, possibly with over straps just incase the weather turns really bad while you are away. <a href="https://www.coveryourcar.co.uk/Car-Covers/stormforceplus.htm" target="_blank">Our PLUS covers</a> feature a 360 degree hemline tension skirt than can be tied extremely tightly so no one can lift up the cover and peek or damage the car. Alternatively one of our Two Tone custom fit Cielo Cover would work well. These can be alarmed and locked and come with 4 x under body straps for a better, more secure fit.<br />

<br />
As summer draws to an end and the darker, colder, damper nights draw in, this is the time of year most with classic cars look at options for their pride and joy for the next 6 months.<br />
<br />
If you are lucky enough to have a nice dry garage then you may be thinking about a nice indoor, curve hugging fleece cover but otherwise outdoor cover options are probably on your mind.<br />
<br />
Your car, new or old will probably fall into one of the following topics.<br />
<br />
a) <b>Daily Drive Car : </b>Cover going to be used for security during the darker nights ahead, and for those frosty early morning darts when the windscreen and car is iced up. Covers may sound like a good idea here but if your car is covered in dirt and grime and possibly rock salt then the last thing you will want to do after arriving home in the dark is wash it before covering it up, so probably not a good idea.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg94rzJGlve4XJ73XkdWeRKucZLutWQNU8G9nZG2Dy8eSYVf45rZuDUzAvubZASrzpdIbmpPq2V8HGgEqNn4JStDlWFLE7TvreEz815jKdKjRsGaDjzguJ-KHfYxNv1INPfm1Mblv1chH0T/s1600/RS500.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Custom Indoor Fleece Car Cover ( Ford Bosworth RS 500 )" border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg94rzJGlve4XJ73XkdWeRKucZLutWQNU8G9nZG2Dy8eSYVf45rZuDUzAvubZASrzpdIbmpPq2V8HGgEqNn4JStDlWFLE7TvreEz815jKdKjRsGaDjzguJ-KHfYxNv1INPfm1Mblv1chH0T/s320/RS500.jpg" title="Sierra Cosworth Indoor Car Cover " width="320" /></a></div>
b) <b>Car Stored in a Dry Garage</b> : If you are lucky enough to have a nice dry garage then a <a href="http://www.coveryourcar.co.uk/softech.html" target="_blank">nice fitted indoor fleece car cover</a> will protect the car from dirt and dust and those accidental dings when brushing past the car. Ours are custom made to order, fit perfectly and are supplied to various official manufacturers. They come in a choice of almost any colour combination and have a soft, fleecy inner lining.<br />
<br />
c) <b>Car Stored in a Lockup or Damp Garage</b> : If this is where your car is stored you need to think about security more than anything. With anti social behaviour and thefts currently at an all time high, your car being vandalised out of spite is a reality you probably don't want to think about. If the lockup garage is damp and the roof is metal then you will need to use an outdoor cover, breathable probably with one of our built in <a href="http://www.coveryourcar.co.uk/store/product.php?productid=19127&cat=875&page=1" target="_blank">cover alarms</a> you give you a fighting chance against thieves or vandals. Always cover the floor with plastic sheeting, this will stop damp rising. If the roof it metal then probably condensation will form on the inside at some point and drip onto the car. Something like a Wheel Clamp and Disklok also worth considering.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjk3XI7Nih67J192Da7JvTZ8nJKE7698C4UqBdaN_GcyiGMrfC5HAWNkLtWCgJNcUc08KwAK4jiyh-9eHq-_dgTFk4Nttg7cS8Oi5cTByUgbi-6FxlGjPEUgsBDKDNBuAsEOs2vXtwlS4n/s1600/d_3518-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Range Rover Sport Custom Outdoor Car Cover" border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="800" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjk3XI7Nih67J192Da7JvTZ8nJKE7698C4UqBdaN_GcyiGMrfC5HAWNkLtWCgJNcUc08KwAK4jiyh-9eHq-_dgTFk4Nttg7cS8Oi5cTByUgbi-6FxlGjPEUgsBDKDNBuAsEOs2vXtwlS4n/s320/d_3518-2.jpg" title="Range Rover Car Cover" width="320" /></a>d) <b>Car Stored on Driveway Outside</b> : Always go for the best option you can afford. Avoid lightweight, generic fit covers, they wont fit well and during high winds or gales will cause issues flapping against paintwork or blowing off the car and causing damage. Fit is everything, and during the depths of winter, freezing temperatures, only a multi layered, quality fitted cover will do. Its normal to get moisture under a cover during certain damp days as dap, heavy air passes through the fabric, hits the cold metal car and condenses. Ideally park it where the sun can get to it, this will went away any moisture. With the number of modern cars now being stolen to order and just dis armed and driven away by thieves with sniffer devices, a <a href="http://www.coveryourcar.co.uk/store/product.php?productid=19127&cat=875&page=1" target="_blank">car cover alarm</a> will give you the warning you need while you sleep before thieves even begin to start to tamper with the car. Always take your keys upstairs at night and use a faraday bag to block any polling signal to the car that may be intercepted.<br />
<br />
<br />
e) <b>Car Stored Outside on The Highway </b>: Again, always go for the best solution, It is illegal to park a covered car on the highway as a) your numberplates are hidden ( now used to check tax status etc by NNPR ) and also your reflectors are covered. Use a cover with Window Panels for the Numberplates and fit reflective stickers to the cover is required. Your rear numberplates should be reflective so visible through the various front and rear windows. Our <a href="http://www.coveryourcar.co.uk/advantex.html" target="_blank">Advan-Tex car covers</a> are available with this option as well as a panel for a parking permit, which again can become an issue.<br />

f) <b>Car Stored in Storage Facility</b> : If you make the decision to put your car in storage over winter, then depending on the quality of the facility, either a fleece cover ( if the facility is totally dry and not damp ) or a lightweight indoor / outdoor cover would be the best solution. The fit is not as important if its indoors as it wont be open to the elements but security may be. Fitting a locking cable and underbody straps will stop people from looking under it, even the Car Cover Alarm option is worth considering but inform the owners its there and in effect before hand. Make sure you get the postcode of the facility the car is being stored and check it with your insurance company you are still covered as some will not honour any agreed values if stored on commercial properties or worst case cover you at all if the postcode is high risk.<br />

<br />
h) <b>Car Stored Overseas in a Hot Climate</b> : If your car is outdoors overseas in a hot climate, and doesnt have to cope with the bad weather and winter ahead then UV will be the main issue as well as peace of mind the cover will stay on the car if being left unattended for months on end. Using one of our PLUS covers will do the job, with a unique 360 degree hemline tension skirt, not only do you have the straps to keep the cover on the car, you also have complete tension around the entire under belly of the car. Add one of our alarms for complete peace of mind.<br />
<br />
We think we have covered most of the various options, different car cover solutions for different situations ahead over winter. Even if you have a new car on PCP or Leave contract, its worth protecting it as no doubt there will be a penalty clause in the contact if there is damage to the car after the term.<br />

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Here at Coveryourcar we are approached all the time by car dealerships both in the UK and Overseas who are looking to buy covers for their customers. Usually the request comes from the customer and although some car manufacturers can offer their own indoor solution, that can't offer a an outdoor solution of any quality.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This is where we come in, fulfilling a request to the dealership from the customer. Obviously fit and quality is paramount so we usually recommend a custom made solution, in either Cielo or Advan-Tex material.</div>

Because they are tall vehicles, chances are they have to live outside, tough going especially over winter, where any expensive electrical or cooking equipment inside can suffer in the cold, or heat of summer even.<br />
<br />
Having been asked many times for covers for them, we now are able to custom make covers for the H Van in our popular 4 layer Stormforce Material.<br />

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Here at Coveryourcar, because our covers are made from a non stretch, fabric, they have to be inch perfect, this is why templates are taken from actual vehicles, for each make, mode, year, and variant of car. Generic one pattern fits all solutions in our opinion just don't work effectively.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
A perfect fit is especially important with an outdoor cover as anything other than that fit wise will result in problems. If your car also has any king of high level spoiler, and a generic cover is uses, this can lead to problems with wear, bellowing in the wind and even sharp edges cutting through the material.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
For example in this <a href="http://www.coveryourcar.co.uk/store/product.php?productid=17479&cat=265&page=1" target="_blank">Porsche GT3 Custom Cover</a>, fit is perfect and cover will do the job it was designed to do for years with no issues. Customer chose blue, also available in black, grey or british racing green. </div>

Having initially found it difficult to locate a car, we did at a dealership in Bradford and the car was patterned and a template made.<br />
<br />
This is an involved and lengthy process but once done, you can rest assured the cover made from the pattern will fit perfectly.<br />
<br />
The Cover will be fully tailored, following the rear windscreen down and then over the profile of the Extreme Rear Spoiler. There is even a small pocket on the roof for the Shark Fin Antenna. Yes we know its exact location.<br />
<br />
So no need to put up with a semi fitted, sort of fits cover anymore for the FK8, we have the perfect solution at and £199, great value for a custom made waterproof and breathable, full tailored cover.<br />
<br />
If researching online, make sure you ask for photos, so you know what you are getting. We think ours is Spot On.<br />
<br />
Below is a photo of us fitting a Cielo Honda Civic Type R - FK8 cover to customers car at Local cars and Coffee meet in Liverpool.<br />

<br />
Motorcycle covers general tend to fit differently to car covers in that the number of fixing points tends to be less and therefore keeping the cover on the bike can be an issue. They are also smaller, more square and sometimes have pannier sand top boxes fitted.<br />
<br />
Hence we are now offering a PLUS upgrade on the standard Stormforce Motorcycle Covers. This means that instead of just relying on the elasticated hem and single under bike strap, the addition of the 360 degree hemline tension skirt means you apply pressure around the entire underside of the bike.<br />
<br />
Now available to buy online via our dedicated Motorcycle Cover website <a href="http://www.coveryourbike.co.uk/">http://www.coveryourbike.co.uk</a><br />
<br />
Any questions please give us a call on 01744 633985 where our team will be able to assist and answer any questions you may have about this new exciting upgrade.<br />

<br />
When using a conventional car cover on any of the above mentioned vehicles, the wheels tend to remain exposed, also the cover becomes an easy target for the wind. Any large gap between the ground and the under side of the vehicle can result in damage to the cover in windy conditions. <br />
<br />
Its also obvious even when covered what the vehicle is under it with a conventional cover. The new EXTRA DEEP hides the car completely, a bonus if you are a Land Rover owner as these classic vehicles are now extremely desirable to thieves.<br />
<br />
The Answer, is our new <a href="http://www.coveryourcar.co.uk/Car-Covers/stormforceplus.htm" target="_blank">Stormforce PLUS</a> - EXTRA DEEP. This is an upgrade to the Standard 4 Layer Stormforce Cover by the factory, its a bespoke hand finished improvement, where an extra deep 360 degree hemline skirt is added to the cover, as in the photo of the prototype.<br />

Yes you could just use <a href="http://www.coveryourcar.co.uk/store/product.php?productid=17149&cat=336&page=1" target="_blank">wheel covers</a>, if you can find some big enough to fit but in reality they take time to fit and remove, each time the car is driven and soon becomes tiresome ( no pun intended )<br />
<br />
Available also with our integrated <a href="http://www.coveryourcar.co.uk/store/product.php?productid=19127&cat=875&page=1" target="_blank">car cover alarm</a> for peace of mind<br />

<br />
Prototypes have been made and are currently being tested for projects we will launch and reveal in the new year. <br />
<br />
Something we are excited about are a new range of PLUS outdoor covers, specifically for 4x4 vehicles like Land Rovers, Jeeps etc where total coverage is required, but never truly ever really achieved.<br />
<br />
This new range of PLUS covers is being announced due to the incredible success of the <a href="http://www.coveryourcar.co.uk/stormforceplus.htm" target="_blank">Stormforce PLUS</a> Outdoor Car Covers we launched earlier this year.<br />
<br />
Keep an eye on this blog, the website and our various social media streams for more information in January 2018. - i.e. <a href="https://www.facebook.com/carcovers" target="_blank">Facebook</a> - <a href="http://www.instagram.com/coveryourcar" target="_blank">Instagram</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/coveryourcar" target="_blank">Twitter</a><br />
<br />
May we take this opportunity to wish all our customers, old and new a Happy Christmas and Great New Year.<br />

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
You will find so called independent reviews on the internet, usually by Auto Magazines that know little or nothing about car covers judging by few samples they have chosen, then give the best of them 5 stars. Quite often the covers chosen are from retailers or manufacturers who have paid a fee to have their cover featured and reviewed....bit misleading to say the least.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Anyone serious about protecting there car over Winter wouldn't go and buy a generic outdoor car cover from some retail park and expect it to work as well as a fully tailored, custom solution, they are worlds apart. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUeLuN0TBLmAUstffvyZsG3H8j6R3kbu0_13xGQkSlGL3TLKL1W0w_W28DGrbVBv7eKitU2VKbgLPUj8tC8KcPralJUj-QZJHF9hJRqZQOrUfIHvrMPH9AaDEfpQSqPj2gVK6NtrG9C-8-/s1600/IMG_5248-1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="488" data-original-width="650" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUeLuN0TBLmAUstffvyZsG3H8j6R3kbu0_13xGQkSlGL3TLKL1W0w_W28DGrbVBv7eKitU2VKbgLPUj8tC8KcPralJUj-QZJHF9hJRqZQOrUfIHvrMPH9AaDEfpQSqPj2gVK6NtrG9C-8-/s320/IMG_5248-1.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So if you are looking for a cover for the Winter ahead, spend wisely, do your own research, listen to reviews by actual customers on forums and the like and make your own decision.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We know our covers are good and our bespoke solutions rank amongst the best available, but we will leave it to the customer to make the final choice.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Happy Motoring</div>

We have been busy, stocking up, mainly for the impending rush of cover sales, into Winter.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Always our busiest time of year, normally production times can stretch out up to Christmas with customers waiting 5 weeks sometimes for custom made covers. This means that by early December, most places that offer a Truly Custom Product, and not an off the shelf general fit equivalent are struggling to fulfil orders before the 25th Dec.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So this year we have planned ahead and aim to have custom made and custom fitted stock available of our most popular car patterns.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So anything modern where we know the car wont have unique features, like mirrors on wing(s) fitted by owners or dealers, which have to be custom located for pocket(s) we will try and stock.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>

<br />
Apparently rife in America, and soon to be over here in the UK and Europe.<br />
<br />
Where criminals will still target certain makes and models of cars and even break into houses looking for keys, the new trend seems to be just stand outside the owners front door with a sniffer / booster device which can detect the signal emitted from the wireless remote which polls to the car if its in close proximity to the house.<br />
<br />
Check out<a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4456992/Shocking-moment-car-hackers-steal-60-000-BMW.html" target="_blank"> this story the Daily Mail ran</a> describing such a theft.<br />
If you google further you will discover a list of cars, which are susceptible to being hacked with an ever increasing number of stories about such disturbing events.<br />
<br />
But there are things you can do and it seems that revolve around old School Technology to protect your pride and joy.<br />
<br />
1) Use a Faraday Bag or Faraday Box when keys are in the house, this will stop the signal from polling from the key fob to the car when idle.<br />
<br />
2) Use a Steering Wheel Lock, make sure key is NOT on the same set of keys as the car's. We recommend using a Thatcham approved product such as Disklok which we will shortly be stocking.<br />
<br />
3) Use a Security Post of your driveway, make sure key is NOT on the same set of keys as the car's.<br />
<br />
4) Use a Wheel Clamp, make sure key is NOT on the same set of keys as the car's.<br />
<br />
5) Use a <a href="http://www.coveryourcar.co.uk/store/product.php?productid=19127&cat=875&page=1" target="_blank">Car Cover with Clip to Car Activated Alarm</a> which can't be hacked. This will give you some warning against a signal hack and keys being stolen plus it will make it less obvious what car you actually have.<br />
<br />
6) Fit a physical / manual third party Thatcham approved immobiliser or cut off switch to the ignition.<br />
<br />
Further updates will be forthcoming<br />

The pattern we developed fits road bikes on Wheel Out Direct Drive Smart Trainers, such as the Tacx Neo or Wahoo Kickr and also conventional style Wheel In Trainers such as the Tacx Vortex, Wahoo Kickr SNAP etc, tucking under the rear feet of the units providing a fully tailored fit on the bike.<br />
<br />
Each cover is custom made to order, and as such is available in almost any colour combination, so can be made to match your Man Cave decor, Club, Team, Bike or Sponsor colours. We can also print onto the front of the cover a personal message, your initials, name, club, team or motivational phase, again in almost any colour.<br />

<br />
On a recent business trip to Spain, we took some photos of cars that were experiencing issues with their paintwork due to being left in the sun for long periods. These can be seen below and prevented by using one of our Special Heat Reflective Fitted Car Covers.<br />

Shipping is typically just £20 - £25 from the UK due to our special rates, and the covers come fitted to the shape of the car with a one year guarantee against failure.<br />
<br />
We also offer an "upgrade" to the standard cover known as a <a href="http://www.coveryourcar.co.uk/voyager.htm" target="_blank">VOYAGER PLUS</a> for those left for longer periods, especially if windy, for that peace of mind factor, where a hemline tension skirt applies pressure around the entire underbelly of the car, rather than the usual strap only system of most covers.<br />
<br />
Customers in the Canary Islands can often not pay 20% UK VAT if they can provide a R<span style="font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px;">esidency ID Number, they will however pay import duty of around 7% on receipt of the cover.
