    I have bought 3 of these now one for myb5 one for the corrado and for the mk1 golf cabby!

    Fantastic fit custom made, not that cheap but get the storm force one fully breathable!

    I kept one on my 5 for 3 months without taking off and it was perfect!!

    I've got a stormforce one for my mini and its well worth the money, I have actually been looking at getting one for the 5 as well. So I'm up for a group buy?

    Yeah good securing clips underneath covers about 3" from the floor, can be made with wing mirror pockets also.

    My golf one is now 4 years old and although has faded a bit still looks good!

    Re: Outdoor car cover for a 5?

    Right guys...

    I have emailed Coveryourcar to find out if we can get a group buy discount, will advise once I get a reply.

    http://www.coveryourcar.co.uk/store/product.php?productid=16642&cat=313&page=1

    The above item seems rather dear (£124.50) but looking at the feedback, you get what you pay for! Let say they give us 10%, thats still over a £110 per cover.

    Can anyone recommend a cheaper alternative?

    Don't think carcoons can be used outside, there is a version of mine that can be but have given up recommending it as it's 750 quid
