which car cover (classic sti with big spoiler)
 
Just got it back from the spray shop so wanting to keep it tip top while it’s in storage over winter. It’s in a fairly dusty garage so any ideas on which car cover is best? Ideally something with a bit of padding as people are going to be walking close past it on a regular basis . Prefer £50 or less but obviously willing to pay more for a very good one

Thanks

Ash

I had a Universal XL cover off ebay. Was rubbish out side with wind but did just about fit. That was under £15. So bet you could find a padded one for under £50. To be honest you won't get much else for that price.

I had an Amazon £25 cover on,lined on the inside,lasted about 6 month outside,cheap rubbish!
just bought one from Aldi,single layer but material is a lot better quality,£10.
I wouldn't chose a non lined one on nice mint paintwork tho.
Think I'm gonna bite the bullet tho and get a Stormforce one circa £145,although I'm still looking at options.
I do have a soft indoor cover which is good quality,light blue called Sahara I think,about £50 it was.

Hmm as I thought. £50 seems a little too cheap for a decent one. Will have to stump up and get a nice one. Thanks for the input

Just got this one. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SUBARU-Im...UXZ:rk:28:pf:0
OK so far, but need to do something about securing the front down, or to the rear, as it can lift off in high westerlies. It doesn't come right off, but does expose the bonnet. Decent clipped securing lines under the car side to side.

Been using this brand of car cover for over 15 years now they are very durable.. https://www.stormcarcovers.co.uk/pro...ers-for-subaruThe Stormforce cover on my car has been on for the last 5 years.SJ.

I found a nice one on Amazon for £49.99. Padded indoor XL.


Hopefully it will do the job. Looks decent enough in the pics (if only it had the STI label like int he 4th pic haha).

I’ve always used the storm force four layer item worth it’s money all day for your pride and joy all day I’ve just bout another after using the last one for nearly ten years available from scoobyworld

went with this this one off amazon, fits great and should keep the paintwork decent . Hopefully the roof of the garage doesn’t leak ��
