Quite frankly, as you are asking for opinions.......

That's a huge amount of money for a purely indoor cover, yes it does looks nice but will probably take up a lot of room when not in use.
I use one of these

just to keep the dust off, but have also used it ocassionally outside when I need to work on another car in the garage. It folds up very small and is sooo cheap.

Happy New Year to fellow tivvers !

Coincidentally I'm thinking of getting something similar. I've had a cheap indoor cover for years which I use but because it's not "made-to-measure" it's oversized and drags on the garage floor which means it picks up dust and dirt. I just fancied a fully-fitted cover which will be off the ground. But, as you say £200 is 4 x tanks of Optimax. scratchchin

Had one for my Tamora a couple of years ago and it was terrific. Excellent quality and absolutely perfect fit. I bought one for my current car from another well known manufacturer which although of comparable quality is not the same glove-like fit as the previous one and £100 dearer. Unfortunately when I got my T350 they no longer supplied these covers but if these are the same as before then great value for money.

I always use one of these in the garage, always get mine from Power as I think they are cheap compared to others thumbup

Ta for info: I hear that the better ones are fleece lined so avoids scratching of paintwork should grit/dust get underneath.
If anyone else has recommendations I'm all ears.

I have two from Classic Additions (they used to supply TVR)... they look very much like the TVR power ones...also get 10% TVR Club membership discount.

Keith, they look excellent, just what I'm looking for.

p.s. what is the metal bar with the spring mechanism running across the entrance in front of your Chimaera?
