My success with covers is poor. I concluded they only really work to keep the sun out of your interior and maybe your paint. As soon as water get's involved it all falls apart quickly.

Also they seem to attract rodents at least in my garden they do.

If you use them you need to remove and inspect them regularly to make sure there is no humidity building up and you drive the car regularly to keep the mice from nesting.

I always worry about chafing Laughing Once the wind start blowing it's basically an abrasive constantly rubbing on your paint. 2007 110 TDCi Station Wagon XS

It's the chafing once the wind gets round it and trapping damp that I'm worried about although the cover is supposed to be breathable. I'm not so bothered about rodents
