Car covers

Over the years I have seen many threads asking about car covers. Now I am not usually one to jump on here and tell people about sales, but here's one from a site that I trust, carcovers.com.

I have bought 2 covers from them over the years. My Olds is stored outdoors from April until November and their products hold up. I had one issue 2 years back where the cover developed a tear over one of the side mirrors. All that they asked was that I send them a picture via e-mail and they replaced the cover free of charge.

The reason that I mentioned this is because I was just cruising the old "interweb", and I took a look at their site. They are running a 50%+ sale on all of their car covers. I am talking about fleece lined, lifetime warranty, free shipping, covers that usually sell for $379 going for $179. If I was in the market for one I would jump on it. Heck, I might just pick one up and save it, just in case I buy another Cutlass.

Just thought I would let you all know if you are interested.

Thanks for the info. I've been looking for a good car cover for some time. At that price with shipping included plus lifetime warranty is hard to pass up.

No free shipping to NZ, $60 which I didn't think was too bad.

Thanks for the heads up, I also ordered one last night. I had bought a cover last year for one of my cars almost the same price was not custom fit did not have the soft inner liner and is not 100% waterproof. This cover per the live person on the website stated that it is also a good indoor cover with plenty of breathability.
