I though I would give my Targa a bit of winter protection during the wet weather as its outside on the drive, so I purchased a half top (convertible) cover from the cover specialists advertised in the PCGB
I used the online sizing guide to get the right size, thoroughly cleaned and waxed the car and put the cover on feeling good.
Two weeks on, Ive checked the car and found it wet underneath the cover , light scratches and marks on the paintwork where the cover ended, and to my horror what looks like pin head bubbles on the paintwork. This is on the strip of painted body work that runs front to back on the drivers side between the door window and the glass targa roof.
The cover is now banished to the garage and Im taking my chances in the rain and making sure the drains are cleaned out every month.
My own fault I suppose but im still gutted, so this a warning to those thinking of using a cover outside this winter.
On a +ve note, the CTEK charger with extension into the Cig lighter is working well!
