Waterproof Travelling Cover - and odds on staying dry ?

[rfs1957]

Can someone recommend a pack-small waterproof cover for an OTS, suitable for overnight stops when travelling ?

And whilst you're at it, place bets on the odds of being able to drive in the dry from Montpellier to Wales mid-July without a hood ?

Hi Rory, I always carry one very compact top cover in the boot, similar to this:

No personal interest whatsoever...
Quite useful because it covers the top + all other potential water ingress points, particularly in July in France during usual thunderstorms with the heavily pouring rain... Guessing bets are not allowed as per forum rules?

Try amazon. I got mine from there, and it works good.

That is exactly what I have been looking for for both my E type and sons MX5 race car which is open.
Just bought one so thanks guys

Touring France last summer the car got soaked during an overnight thunderstorm and the cover I have is too big and heavy to carry around on holiday.

So far so good then - for the Bikini cover.

But I was thinking also of the make-it-look-less-noticeable by putting a complete bag over its head, so would still be interested to hear if anyone can recommend a cheap-and-cheerful waterproof-cover for occasional use ?

Not concerned about breathability etc - it's an overnight job.
