Car Cover
I will be purchasing a car cover for the winter. My car will be in the garage, I just wanted the cover as a precaution.
To the guys who have used covers before, what's your opinion on MB covers versus aftermarket? If you do use an aftermarket cover, please share some details. Thanks

lol, The car won't be garaged for the entire winter, I would like to have the option of taking it out and not have the ride feel like crap. The summer tires that I have on now are HORRIBLE in the cold. It feels like I'm driving on rocks.
I also wanted an excuse to get the F14s.

I use the MB cover and it is a nice product compared to some non-MB covers I have seen in the past. I didn't shop around since I bought it at the same time as the car when new.

Wes - I will bet that I am WAY older than u, but even 20 years ago - covercraft technalon was really, really good for outside storage:

Cotton covers worked very nicely on my old 930 turbo which was stored inside...
Drop a PM if any questions. Cheers.

+1. I believe thats what my Z34 is sleeping under in Canada, I have inside storage but have always used a cover. I'm getting one for my CLK this weekend when I get back to Dubai as well (the car sits 5-6 days a week while I travel).

Are you storing the car inside or outside. If inside, I would use one of the flannel covers. If outside I would use one of the weatherproof ones that you get from Covercraft. I have a Weathershield HP that I used for outside and it keeps out everything including UV rays. If your interested, please PM me. I sold the CLK and don't need it.
Also, if the car is outside you want to put something in or around it to keep away the critters. I use stuff called STORE IT RIGHT on my SL and my Corvette and so far no mice.
Good luck.
