    Aldi Car Covers....Aldi Car Covers....[emoji848]

    Hiya all,
    Anyone had any experience with these Aldi car covers?


    They appear too cheap to me....
    I went to my local today (Aldi, not the pub), and had a look. They kind of seem ok, I'm in two minds. Was wondering how they'd hold up for six months or so in the upcoming heat and storms......

    Ta.

    I bought two a couple of years back and dont use them outside as they are not UV stable and fall to pieces in a couple of months.

    However they do have a nice soft lining that would be kind to paintwork - so use in a garage to keep the dust off and do not get dirt on the lining as it is hard to get off.

    I have had one for 4 years to cover my 84 BMW E30 it is still in good condition & still keeps light rain off the car . I bought a new one today to replace it as it is starting to get a bit of dust in the lining from covering the car when it w a dusty. I am going to use the old one on my 80" to stop the bird droppings when the swallows start nesting again next year.

    I was wondering about the ventilation, and the cover on your beemer shows it perfect.
    Thanks for the extra Intel mate. Awesome!

    I took the new cover off the BMW this afternoon & noticed it dose not have the fleece lining like the old one . Just thought I would worn you before you raced out & bought one. I have now put a couple of old blankets on the bonnet & boot lid to stop the cover sce
