Well with a decent Mini in the works, I'm going to need something to protect it when its parked at work, or my g/f snakes the space in the garage.

What is a top quality car cover that can be bought in Australia ?

Chasing something that is waterproof, wont scratch the paint and is as light as possible.

Are there any that give slight protection from hail ? Worth a try :)

Budget would suit anything under $500.

I would've thought THIS (http://www.minispares.com/Product.aspx?pid=36641) to be ideal... :D

It CAN be bought in Australia (in a sense...) :wink:

What are you asking and how heavy duty is it?
