How much is a silver sausage?
Which would be recommended? Cocoons, or covers, if on a relatively sheltered driveway?

Not yet, I'm toying with the idea of a soft cover over the car before we see snow.

I picked mine up, carcoon, from pistonheads classified's for a couple of hundred quid + p&p (weighs a ton!) it included battery charger. Very pleased thus far.

I use old curtains ( velour I think ) to protect it from chaffing even though its lined ... Never had a problem even when the snow was on it

Watch the zip ... I sprayed it with wd40 or gt85 very frequently ... If the zip goes its £100 and weeks for the dickheads are carcoon to sort it
