Car Cover

drivetolive · 10-25-2017, 09:48 AM

I am curious what car cover folks are using to store their cars?

I am looking at storing my car in a garage for the winter and contacted BMW for a car cover for my E90 - to which they said BMW discontinued.

Get the OEM cover. Decently priced and very good quality.

I use the super soft Sparco one from Canadian Tire. Not cheap, but the material is fantastic and it has access for the driver's door while covered.

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll check out CT in-store as their online store doesn't seem to have any of the two above-mentioned options.

It was a Simoniz car cover, they come in different sizes fir 99.99.
Thick enough to give some protection, but soft and breathable.
Sold through CT 41-2255-4

I have an E90/92 OEM one if you are interested, used for 2 winters, but in great condition.

Thanks for the offer, but I ended picking up the Simoniz once from CT as per TimHudson's recommendation!
