  • car cover

    I'm getting tied of having to wash bat .... off my car each day (only at certain times of the year) and was wondering if anyone could recommend a cover that would fit the 120.
    I have racks on the roof and bull bar.
    A cheap one that i can just whip on and off would be perfect.

    Any thoughts ?

    Cheers

    Try Superchap or Big W. About $60 and lasts about 12- 18 months-not waterproof but perfect for bats......

          Kenco Tyvek Car Covers. The material Tyvek (CSIRO approved) is what to look for in car covers.
          When looking for car covers, ensure they are for external use, water proof not water resistant. Some come with 12mth warranty but they cannot be wet and then dry in the sun. Some leave wax like marks on your paint. Some even stick to the paint.

          I am looking for one and after Google searching, looking at peoples suggestions I have settle for the above from Super Cheap Auto, The other automotive shops have them as well. For a large cover it’s about $140 (for the valiant) 4x4 are a bit more.

            The other option to consider (Which I have for the camper), Is to string up a shade cloth cover from surrounding trees, the house, or even a couple of gal poles.

            Easier to use than a cover and would offer the same protection from the bats, which is the same problem I have (Got to get rid of the Coccos palms).
