Has anyone out there ever bought a car cover specifically for a MM? I'm looking into buying one to keep the frost off, but most of the custom fitted ones don't list the Mini Marcos as an option (though some list Marcos as a manufacturer) and those that do are only selling universal ones. |

I have a fabric shower proof one had it for years if I remember correctly it was just a generic small sports car cover but fits reasonably well. |

I spotted that one Tim, they're just semi-fit ones. However, I've decided to order a cheap one off eBay and see how it goes - I'll only be down a few quid if it doesn't work, and I'll probably find another use for it anyway... |

I bought one of those Classic Additions car covers for my Marcos and it was way too big. Excess material was laying on the floor all the way around. I complained, but was told that they don't make a smaller one. I still have the cover and use it on my Frog Eye Sprite and it's even slightly too big for that. |

Bought a cheap "car top" cover from eBay, covers from halfway down the bonnet, all the way back and over the rear lights! |

OK thanks Neil. Expensive car covers will have to wait, at least until I've paid for the MOT failure repairs. Doh! |
