Exterior Car Cover

My 1984 XJS Coupe stands outside at the moment as I get it ready for the road. Winter here on the Isle of Man can be fairly wet and windy. Anybody suggest a good, strong exterior car cover.

Interesting question, I have never had much luck with covers. They seem to cause condensation and in the past have marked my paint. I have used a cover attached to a folding frame which was satisfactory.I believe it was called a folding car cover and it had hoops which folded back to allow entry. It was more expensive and if windy, requires bolting down. regards Kels

Knowles Wilkins (KWE) do a superb heavy duty breathable cover.
