    Default Covering your car???

    Hi guys just wondering how u cover your car out of a garage. Mine is not covered at the moment which ****s me. Got a car cover for it but its a pain on a daily basis. Does anyone know any tent or portable garage things that can be set up to keep a car covered???

    Yeh im not sure where u are but im sure there may be a supercheap or autobarn or something that deals in automotive products. u normally can pick up one of these tents that easly fit a car under for about $100-$200 Depending on what styles u like....... i have seen a double leangh ones for $200 which are like a single Garage but 2 cars long

    Probably as good as anything else if you are short on space. My parents put up one of the tent sorta ones that they got from supercheap or somewhere like that. It seems alright. Easy to put up, ya just gotta secure it to the ground well if you live in a windy area. Otherwise its like a big sail when the wind comes

    when i was renting without a garage i used to keep the car cover in the boot. to remove it i'd just pop the boot and scrunch it in (didn't use the boot much and no good if the cover is saturated) then to put it on it was just the opposite. wasn't too much of a problem. Now i have a shed... sort of. lol
