Cars on the Coast

Bird muck on your car is never good for its paint and laquer, but Seagulls can be real problem if you live on the coast, especially if their diet is particularly acidic. This can be caused by them eating a certaint type of shell fish or similar at any given time.

Add into the mix the car being left for a week or so in the height of summer over the holiday period and this makes fitting a car cover essential. One than can be easily cleaned and is non absorbant.

Bespoke Cycle Covers

OK so you are into your cycling and you have a nice and very expensive race bike that's your pride and joy. Way to expensive to leave in a shed or garage so it sits pride of place in your living room or bedroom or hallway.

Its probably state of the art and made from Carbon Fibre ( They all are these days ) and one day, the sun is shining, life is good, you reach for your steed and shock horror there is a chip, scratch or worse on the frame.

Someone has simply caught it with the hoover, bag or similar and its potentially ruined as with carbon fibre a chip can soon become a crack.

The answer is one of our new bespoke soft, fleece, tailored made indoor race bike covers. Made from the same Softech, non scratch, fleece material we use for Performance Supercars they will protect your bike from dings, scratched, dust, hair ( in the chain ) and worse.

Available in the colours of your club or team, they are available to buy online from Coveryourcar here.

So protect your investment today and dont chance it!

Buying a Car Cover and living in London?

Parking in London has always been a problem and a parking space is a much treasured possession if you have one. So if you want to protect your car and use a car cover you will probably need one with a parking permit or tax disc holder window to keep the authorities happy. If your car is parked on the public highway, then you must display your tax disc, it is after all a legal requirement. If you park in a residence parking area then you will need to display a permit or risk getting a fine.

The Solution is to use one of our new Advan-tex bespoke car covers. Each one is individually made to order here in the UK. We insert a special window at time of manufacture so you can display both your tax disc and parking permit so you wont get into trouble with the law.

We can also fit a car cover locking kit and car cover alarm so you can protect your investment from thieves.

Don't be fobbed off by sellers suggesting taping things to the outside of a standard cover as in reality this isnt a viable solution.

Monsoon Car Cover Review

Monsoon car covers from Coveryourcar.co.uk are a great solution to Winter / outdoor storage. They are a good fit, usually with pockets for the wing mirrors. They are polurathane based which means the material isnt as breathable as some other fabrics.

This isnt a problem though as the cover is breathable by design and has vents to help the air circulate. Infact in the winter months it works in a good way as damp, moisture heavy air doesnt pass through the cover and condense on the car like some other car covers.



The material is 100% waterproof, but can be slightly delicate if the cover is on and off the car every day. Great for longer term winter storage though where the cover is on the car for long periods.

The inner lining is also quite soft, distinctly different to the Stormforce and Voyager solutions which look similar inside and out.

Because the cover is Polyurathane, it doesnt last well in very hot climates where there is high UV and intense heat, in these instances a Stormforce, Voyager or Advan-Tex solution would be better.

All in all the Monsoon cover is a great solution for older cars over winter and help protect them from the worst of the elements
