    car covers

    Hi could anyone recommend a waterproof but breathable good fitting car cover for the 5

    I have discovered the garage where i was gonna keep it foe winter is very very damp so will do more harm than good.

    Also do the outdoor covers do much damage to the paint work? I can just imagin fine crap under there rubbing against the paint as the wind blows the cover.


    Thanks for any advice.

    Re: car covers

    I got mine from here

    Had it for last 3 years outside and cover still going strong, I wouldn't get any cheap cover again as they only last a couple of months over the winter once the wind picks up. They do indoor covers but not sure what they are like though, fitment to the Renault 5 is spot on.

    Re: car covers

    I got one from a local car place that was breathable and weather resistant. Cost about £15. It was so good I had another one a few years later. I used it outside and there were one or two issues when used long-term, due to the wind, but it would be absolutely fine forever if being used in a garage.
