Genuine E82 car cover?

BitAddict · 04-02-2012, 08:10 PM

Guys, do any of you know the best place to buy a genuine waterproof cover for my 135i?

I live in an old terrace and while I can park the car off the street in a port at the back of it, the nose of the car just sticks out of the cover and so I would love to get a good quality cover. Especially since I'm away for months at a time.
Another option will be to rent a garage somewhere when I'm away for longer (definitely doing this for a 6 month trip I have coming up).

There are a few on eBay, though I don't think any are genuine BMW products.

How was the L100 work ups? Where are you posted out to?

Good fun mate :-) that is an awesome ship to be posted to - if they have room! During work-up we had every man and their dog = doctors get to stay in the troop mess! For the run back down to Sydney I got a nice cabin! Even got to see some real life patients.
I'm doing 3 months at RPA ED reg'ing, then a short holiday, then most likely 6 months gulf trip on Toowoomba :-/ oh well, the money should be good and I'm confident the missus isn't going to leave me ;-)

The eBay ones don't take my fancy... I want something like this:

Might just have to buy it from there (too scared re.$$ to ring local dealerships haha...)

$315.- at the dealer... but 3 week wait anyway. Might as well order from the US...

Sounds like the US is the way to go then. Tho for $300 you could probably build a small extension onto your carport :P

Good to hear you got out of NW! No wonder I haven't seen you down in our lowly country ED lately haha.

Gulf trip would be all the better if there's more medical cases, but sounds like Parramatta got lucky with the boat load of fishermen. And a gong at the end make it sweeter!
