Hello, all.
Could any of our members recommend a supplier of a good quality interior car cover ?
It is required for a slab tank version of a K3 MG so it would need to be taylor made.
Thank you,
Chris. |

| Moss do an indoor cover for the TC. I have one that I've used on the PB . A little big but not bad. |

Realise that this is slightly off subject, but I have a Carcoon Evolution 4m x 1.5m x 1.5m which I bought some time ago and have only used a couple of times.
Dug it out this morning and checked it over. Everything works, both fans and all zips are fine.
Asking £100 plus postage . As it's a bit bulky when packed, suggest buyer may prefer to collect. (And yes, I know the garage needs tidying!

Thanks for your reply, Graham.
Prefer a tailor made or bespoke cover really but will certainly keep Moss in mind.
Thanks also Dick, fortunately it wasn’t what I wanted !!

I am surprised that a small cotton car cover has not been tailored for J's or P's. The TC cover is really much too big. A nice indoor dust cover would be great . Nothing available in the States, but I would buy two if anyone in the UK wishes to get into the project. Once the pattern is made it should not be complex. I have a a lightweight cotton cover for my M type . It was made in the UK and has a large MG logo on the front. Very small, just covers the M type with the top down.

Thanks, Mike.
I am now wondering what other MMM owners are using to cover their cars and how many are also requiring a decent cover.

What is the advantage of a tailored cover over one which is a loose fit?

Aesthetics don't play a big part in my motor house. I just use a couple of old sheets.

I didn't respond earlier since I believed the wish was to obtain a cover in the UK. However, since Mile L. stated that there was nothing available in the US, I have to disagree. I had a custom cover made for my Airline Coupe by The California Car Cover folks. I had to supply some detailed dimensions, but in about 2 weeks, I had a very nice, perfectly fitting cover. You do have to talk with them, as the MGs are not listed on their site, but they will make nearly anything.

Thanks Lew.(Big fan of the Airline by the way.) I had one of the reproduction bodies that were made some years ago but at the time didn’t have a suitable MG to put it on !
I will have to search further in the U.K. I didn’t think it would be this difficult to find a supplier l must admit.
