1M Car Cover

Any advice on getting a car cover? I see the US owners can get a fully fitted, M branded, $275 version. When my 1M arrives (in Jan 2012 - grrrrr) it will be sleeping under a wood pigeon tree house. Never had a car cover before. Thinking fully fitted, with wing mirror ear muff type things looks like a real pain to get on and off. I\'m thinking one of the £30 eBay options looks preferable. Any advice please?

You'll probably find a cheap cover will not have the soft lining inside to stop you scratching the top coat on your paintwork.

So go more expensive, with lining - but what about fitted v loose? Any thoughts? Just can't be bothered with making the bed every time I get back from driving.
