From about this time of year onwards, I favour "Gangster Mode" (hood-up and sidescreens off). So I can drive and stay dry/warm-ish, then put the car away like that. Despite the garage, without an indoor cover who knows what will fall onto/into the car during storage. This juicy tiger moth caterpillar (according to my daughter who is into entomology) was on the hood one day, and yes they will chew mohair fibres to make a cocoon...
