:)Well I finally got my cover finished and now the evo is out of the snow and rain:)Although I had to wait for the snow to melt to get it finished:whistling:After a lot of to and frowing to the suppliers in Denmark we finally got it sorted. The poxy instructions tell you to do it a totally different way to fit it together hence making the job take a lot longer than anticipated:( So what do you all think of it? I reckon it wins hands down to an outdoor cover.
Just got to get a security post fitted now for extra security although it's behind locked gates and has a tracker and a cat 1 alarm:ninja:so better be safe than robbed:)
As I haven't run any electric to it I also bought myself a 10 watt solar charger to keep the battery topped up:)

Heres the charger.

And here's the shelter and you can see the charger just at the back of the shelter.

Wasn't to bad Tom £500 which if you think of a price for an outdoor cover isn't to bad swallow, plus if I need to do any polishing or anything I can do it undercover wheras an outdoor cover just marks your paintwork:)

It's pretty well constucted with 10 ratchet straps holding the main sheet in place, and the framework is pretty rigid as well. I bought it from a company called Dancover who specialise in all sorts of portable shelters, they look a very proffesional company and all the specs can be found on their website. How much snow it would hold I couldn't comment as I just missed it all but it does say in the instructions to brush off snow periodicaly think that's how you spell it:whistling::)
