Question

Just a quick one. My current car is parked on a drive which is good, because the scals round here love nothing more than to scatch an expensive car. The problem is that we have a tree over the driveway so every morning I come out and its covered in sh*t from trees and birds (the winged type).

Does anyone know of anywhere that does scooby car covers that are easy to put on, stay on and take off ? I thought that a normal one wouldnt do it because of the scoobys huge spoiler and front.

One other thought is this: Do you reckon it would stop scals looking or attract em more ?

Don't get the ones which Halfords do, they are crap!!!!if you have a decent alarm with external Microwave detecton, their cover reacts with the sensor and your car will chirp all night long......

Try, www.calcarcover.com - Nice......!!!

200 quid for a car cover!!!? I can get you guys one here posted to you for 50 quid or less. Don't buy the ones made with material which is a bit like cloth (sorry not too technical but you know what i mean!!) Once it rains and gets wet, it makes your car really dirty as the dirt seeps through the fabric and sticks to your car. It also takes ages to dry. The best material is similar to the stuff your umbrella or tent uses, it is much more lighweight and dries much quicker if it gets wet. Haven't had any problems with my alarm and everyone uses them here.

Might have a potential for a decent business!!! Mail me if anyone is interested.

Cool

Inject Diesel into the roots - it'll be dead within a month

You can get rid of it then
