Can anyone recommend an outdoor car cover suitable for an L322 ? I’m looking for something of reasonable quality and ( approximately) L322 shaped so it doesn’t billow around in wind. Ideally with some sort of retaining straps or fixings. TDV8 4.4 2012 |

A lot of these covers, especially if put on a not just freshly washed car will damage your paintwork in moments.

I've thought of this many a time for my RRS. Having had a couple of covers over the years for previous cars, it's hard to get away from the fact a breeze or wind will get underneath it and flapping around against your paint work. Might be harmless with the materials used nowadays or a quality product. Watching with interest though. visiting from www.rrsport.co.uk |

My usage of the cover is not going to be long term; I periodically leave the Fatty in a locked storage compound for a week or two whilst I’m off trecking and plan to use the cover as camouflage. It gives me peace-of-mind against opportunists peaking into the interior. The vehicle also has a 9H ceramic coating. So, whilst it may be that a cheap cover may risk minor paint degradation, I think a quality one will be fine. TDV8 4.4 2012 |

Perhaps look for a caravan cover ok not designed fir the lower profile over the bonnet but probably better value as more produced. They have straps so you can fasten them tight to stop billowing and a cheap rope would soon accommodate the bonnet area. 2012 tdv8 Westminster arrived Jan 19 gone Dec 23

Managed to get a lightly used one on eBay for £80 in the end. Thanks to @Merchy for the tip.
