The best on the market I'm aware of is called a Carcoon but they don't come cheap, heres a weblink; http://www.carcoon.com/

Thanks,

I was thinking more of the grey strap down close fitting fabric type. I always envisage carcoons as being indoor sealed storage.

I put a multi layered, breathable all singing and dancing cover on my TVR a few years back. Water got under it on a windy day and it ruined the paint. Unbeknown to me it Trapped the moisture between body and cover and then steamed the car when the sun came out.
Would never use a cover again.
I might consider one that just goes over the soft top & windows to stop water getting inside the car.

I would tend to agree with you, I haven't come across a cover that would be fool-proof so to speak. I'd say a tent-type "garage" might be a better option, as long as you make sure air get to circulate properly inside it to ensuring everything stays dry.

That would be a Carcoon then, outdoor versions fully weatherproof regularly on e bay, about £400 used, if F1 use them they'll satisfy me. I believe they offer a "framed" version also.
