Maybe you just got your dream car, an Aston Martin, Ferrari, Bentley or even a Porsche and you are very protective of it. It is understandable, since this is your pride and joy and you do not want anything to happen to it. What options do you have? Well, the first thing that comes to mind is a protective car cover.

For starters, it’s more interchangeable than a garage, since you can put it in the trunk and take it from one place to another.

A quality car cover for your new Aston Martin should be a well considered purchase. There’s no benefit to buying a cheap and cheery car cover if you want to protect your £90,000 new toy. More expensive car covers give you a much better level of protection from elements like rain and sunlight.

The bare minimum you want for a car cover is for it to be waterproof and tailored and designed for that individual car make and model, rather than a generic “one size fits all” solution that will provide very little protection and will flap around . about in the wind.

You need to decide when the cover is going to be used, so you can buy the right one. Do you need a cover that protects you from indoor and outdoor conditions? If so, it will be worth getting something with a strong water-repellent membrane and ideally a protective coating.

Something else will be required for long-term outdoor storage. Just protecting the car from the rain will not be enough, as you will also need to consider protecting the body paint.

Lightweight car covers will allow the car to breathe and still provide a good level of protection from the sun’s harmful rays.

Some car covers can be made with a selection of colors and in some cases can be made entirely to your wish requirements. It will be worth asking a professional for advice, as they will know what is best to consider based on what you have planned for the car in terms of location.
