banished outside
It looks like I'll be storing my spider outside soon , does anyone have a recommendation for a good weatherproof cover at a decent price ?

Re: banished outside
I use the NOAH cover for outdoor 3 season storage here just outside Boston. It fits well and does a good job, but I haven't had it in full winter snow. One thing I do is to make sure to remove the cover after a rainy period has ended, open the doors, windows, etc. and get a lot of air in the car and get it fully dried out. A nice spin around the block helps too. Even with a good cover, they shouldn't sit for long periods of time. The inevitable humidity buildup will cause problems for sure.

Re: banished outside
I suppose where you hang the hat would Influence the decision a bit.
I noticed IAP had a choice of covers depending on the desired application. I have a Noah as well but the car spends the winter under cover. I use it when I park it at work as well during the day. Washes well. Good quality...decent price... kinda relative eh...
On another note...what on earth is more important to put in the covered parking rather than the beloved Fiat
