I am sure Phil Royle keeps his 4/4 outside under a cover - I cannot remember which one he uses though. Might be worth a PM.

FWIW just had to put SWMBOs Smart Roadster outside and it leaks like they all do. So as before I covered it with an old bed sheet to prevent scratches and then simply used a DIY shop tarp and some boat ropes. Works well as long as you dont want to keep uncovering the car and using it.

I am sure Phil Royle keeps his 4/4 outside under a cover - I cannot remember which one he uses though. Might be worth a PM. I`ve had a couple of Metex outdoor covers from Hamilton Classics - good & non scratch - but quite bulky. The latest one which I ordered from the NEC in 2019 is by Covercar - an Italian firm - about £200 with "ears" for the mirrors and Morgan logo in gold printed on. Breathable, non-scratch, waterproof and much more compact - think Spandex for cars. I was dubious when I saw them but am very pleased after a year . The MD in Italy has Morgans - so understands. Choice of colours and made to fit. Apparently used by Prancing Horse and other Italian supercar manufacturers. www.covercar.com email info@covercar.com Hope this is of use. If you PM me with an email, I can send you a picture.

Thanks Phil - looks really good. The 4 seater one is now 295 Euros. With delivery and the inevitable Brexit Tax, it's going to probably be north of 350- 400 quid.
Hamilton don't list a Four Seater cover, but a bit more reasonable at £185.
