I tried a few and an MG-F one seems to work pretty well.

Hi all,
 

 
My Q2+2 has been temporarily banished from the garage and I’d like to find a car cover that’s a good fit, rather than a plastic tarp that’s already blown off the car several times since Christmas despite the use of multiple bungees. Rather than just take a punt online, do any of you have good reports of something that fits well, doesn’t do any damage, and stays on?
 

 
Many thanks in advance

I’ve not had good experience with covers on painted cars, i’ve always found that they get damp trapped under the cover (even supposedly breathable ones) and it makes the paint blister up with blisters full of water.
This has mostly been Quantums but also on production cars.
 
If your car is in gelcoat rather than painted then it may be ok.
A good coat of polish before covering it may help.
 
I’m guessing that more modern paint absorbs the moisture and somehow it accumulates under the paint.
I’ve even had it to a degree on my 2+2 under the edge of the hood where it sits against the body and the 2+2 has never been left outside.

I didi not get on well with a straight car cover and so got one of these:
 
https://www.canvasandnylon.co.uk/portable-garages/ <https://www.canvasandnylon.co.uk/portable-garages/>.
 
It was good over 10 years so last year I bought a second one. My type are the perambulator style. The frame holds the cover clear of the car body and there is ventilation. Beneficial winter or summer. Works well on the front of the house with no permissions needed. I did use some good ground anchors and even gales will not shift them. One of the ground anchors holds the folded over section closed to the ground with a padlock.
