ive had loads of covers over the years for various classics, it near impossible to actually keep them on the car for a long period, eventually the wind will rip it off no matter how well you tie it down. my neighbour has to buy one evrey year for his roller as its tied down so hard it just rips at the tie downs. it even lifts bricks off the ground when it fills with wind from underneath , its a huge sail

are you telling me - he keeps is Roller outside I think if I had a Roller - it would be in the barn We live in the countryside and these Hamilton covers have got 2 massive straps and in the gales they have never moved - they also really dry out quickly a good investment when you have pigeons that on the roof from above |

Eugene, i have one for my 322, one for my LSE & another (indoor one) for another sporty car and all don’t make the paint at all... The two RR ones were specially made for them with zips on the drivers doors, zips on the boot and are 100% breathable so the windows can be lest ajar permanently if required! |

Have used a Specialised Covers tailored breathable cover on a car parked on the street in town before - putting it onto a clean car and tightening the straps properly worked very well, no paint damage and the straps rarely came loose. Not a garage substitute though. |
