Van cover

Post by bradders89 »

Want to cover my van for the winter to as I don't use it much and to keep it clean. Where's the best place to get one from?

VW Heritage sell decent covers with zipped doors and lots of air vents, the standard height roof covers are out of stock at the moment.

Typical there sold out. Wrong time of year to buy one! Mine is a tin top with a low roof rack, I'm guessing a tin top cover will be fine.

If the van isn't going to get much use, a fully waterproof cover with air vents is a good idea, no need to worry about water getting past seals . It only takes a minute to take it off when the weather is good. Long term use of the cover can lead to paint being rubbed off on the angled edges of the van.

Only want to cover it mainly to keep it clean and keep the water off it.
