Anyone use an outdoor car tent?

FIRST1 · 08-14-2013, 09:26 AM

Got any recommendations? I could really use a small one that just fits the 1er. I live in a gated community now so I can't buy something big that will block the neighbors' water view :-/

Indicating that you live in a gated community suggests you have a Homeowner's Association and they will probably not look kindly on that kind of structure.

So what you're saying is, The system is designed for me not to have a car tent.

And that car has an interesting story. It was extremely low mile and stock. Was bought buy a kid who's girlfriend had a rich dad. They turned it into a track car. A very nice one but at that time there were so many other cars they could have done it too. Money can corrupt.

Makes me regret ever selling my e30 M3. Sad face...

You really should have an attached garage if you're going to do that. Mine sits outside, I've never even pulled it in to the garage. Maybe this winter.

HOA is gonna jump on your azz if u set up a tent for your car.

PA135i · 08-17-2013, 01:09 PM

Got a HOA here and they would not permit a structure like that. They are your "shadow government".

Go naked, but put a good sealant on her before the Winter sets in.

That car bubble look interesting.Hmmm.. Something to keep your summer car in winter,just to avoid the dust etc.

Coming back to the OP's question have you tried this
