Wink Car cover recommendation please.

The new property we will be moving to does not have a garage..yet. It probably won't be completed until next year as other building work is also in the pipeline.
The car will have to stay on the driveway but I want to keep the worst of the elements away from it so was thinking about a car cover.
Any recommendations or ones to stay away from ?
Cheers
Brian.

Wash and polish it, If you're using it virtually daily.

Car covers can make vehicles sweat and trap moisture. Unless you are going for an inflated cover.

You could buy a cheap outside marquee/tent

I put a cheap 20 quid cover on an old Mini I had. Worst thing I ever did. Got damp and mouldy inside and hastened general rust outside. Just keep car away from trees with sticky droppings and birds sitting on branches. You could just put a soft cover over roof and window but I wouldn't even bother with that. David
