    Can anyone recomend a good car cover for my DeLorean?

    It's in the garage year round, not outside so I don't need to worry about rain or snow.

    I've looked at various ones on eBay and the one the DMCH sells but really was hoping someone might recomend a particular brand.

    If it is truly indoors all the time, it's hard to beat the Walmart Size 3. They are so cheap that you throw them away every 2-3 years when they get dirty.

    Don't use that one outside, then you'll be replacing it ever couple of months.

    I've had mine for about 4 years from these folks http://www.micarcovers.com/ Choose OTHER from their menu. The style for the D #167. I got the Sunforger Flannel It's lined with cotton flannel, with a canvas outer cover and comes preshrunk. It's machine washable. Fits the car perfect.

    Thanks Everybody...

    I'll check out the Wal-Mart option. Would rather put moeny into parts. The cover is just to keep the dust off.

    My VIN:    #5000 (Grey, manual, SS chassis, intercooled twin turbo), #16128 (Grey, auto, efi twin turbo), #888

    I have a "Noah" car cover on #5000, same one since 1998. Few stains, but no holes. They can be sourced from many places, but I think I originally got it from California Car Covers. It's only been outside with it on about 10 times, otherwise in the garage. It's your choice, go cheap or quality......I think I paid about $150 in 1998. Guess you could say I have my money's worth, and counting....
