New Aston Martin Vanquish Car Covers!

The Aston Martin Vanquish is the perfect crime fighting machine for anyone out there who wants to make a difference. After it's showing on screen in the James Bond film "Die Another Day" many were impressed with the stylish looks and impressive capabilities of the vehicle and it sold exceptionally well for a luxury supercar. We feel that it is important to purchase one of our car covers to protect your vehicle after a hard day's fighting henchmen and chasing down super villains bent on global domination.

Our website now has a section dedicated just to the Aston Martin Vanquish (including the more modern S model) where you can browse the different types of car covers available to purchase. We have a wide selection in stock suitable for indoor and outdoor use depending on which of our car covers you choose, and we even supply a free storage bag with every order. This will allow you to fold your cover away into a neat and tidy package enabling you to take it with you when away from home. This ensures that you can have it to hand to protect your vehicle when your quartermaster or armoury officer has your car in the workshop upgrading its lasers.

Our waterproof half car covers are ideal for use on your Aston Martin Vanquish. This design sits neatly over the windows and windscreens and also features wing mirror pockets for extra security and protection. As it is a half cover and only covers the cab/cockpit area of your car you still have access to your wide range of third party gadgets and accessories, however we sell repair kits that can be used in the case of any unfortunate accidents involving accidental ejection seat activations whilst your cover is still in place.

Our heavy duty waterproof car covers offer excellent protection against wind, rain, sleet, snow, dirt, dust, arrows, bullets and intercontinental ballistic missiles. Despite their size and durable properties you will be astonished at how easy they are to fit to your Aston Martin Vanquish; we guarantee you can fit yours in an active war zone without getting a mark on your tuxedo. Remember you cannot fit our heavy duty waterproof Aston Martin Vanquish car covers to a wet vehicle; this would simply trap moisture against the bodywork of your vehicle which could potentially damage the cloaking device.

We understand that it's not all about toppling dictators and chasing down maniacal masterminds, if you are on assignment in luxurious surroundings then chances are you'll be letting the valet park your Aston Martin Vanquish in some kind of sheltered facility. If this is the case then be sure that you've got one of our soft indoor car covers nestled in the boot next to the assault rifle and defibrillator, and if you're going to ask the valet to fit it for you be sure to tip well.

Our flagship products are our lightweight breathable Aston Martin Vanquish car covers. These feature all of the usual refinements that you have come to expect including automatic flaps that retract when you deploy offensive weaponry when parked. One of the unique features of this type of cover is that it can be fitted to a wet vehicle so after a tense battle you won't have to wait for your vehicle to dry after clearing away the blood, entrails and mud that tend to result from such occurrences.

Whether you are chasing down despots and tyrants or carousing with sexy double agents be sure you have one of our car covers to hand, the Aston Martin Vanquish is a beautiful vehicle that deserves respect and it should be protected properly when parked in order to ensure that it functions properly when you need it most, be it popping down to the shops for some vodka and vermouth or scouring the desert in search of a tyrants secret underground lair.

Car covers are for life, not just for Christmas...

Many people look at car covers as a winter commodity, something to be used in the colder months when the winds howl, the rain batters down and everyone tries to stay warm and dry. In reality though this is often not the season when car covers are really useful. Unless you own a vintage car or vehicle that has problems staying watertight then by their very nature most cars are water resistant from the moment you buy them; they have to be to function as a vehicle. Because of this the wind and rain are often not a concern, rather people should be worried about the various contaminants throughout the year and the damage they can do to their vehicles.

Dust, grime, tree sap, bird droppings, all of these things can cause damage to your vehicle in greater or lesser degrees. What people often fail to realise is that these things become far worse and have a much greater potential to cause problems from spring into summer and through into autumn, and this is really the period when you need to use one of our car covers to keep your vehicle safe and sound.

In spring the flowers begin to bloom and the pollen in the atmosphere increases a hundred-fold. With this pollen comes dust and a plethora of other airborne particles that can settle on your vehicle and encourage rust to set in. Even if rust is not a concern imagine all of those tiny little particles, rubbing gently against the finish of your car. As you can imagine there is some measure of exfoliating effect that will gradually remove the surface layers of your paint resulting in a marked, duller finish and less protection from the elements.

As we move into summer you will find cycles of clear, crisp dry days followed by grey, hot, humid ones. This cycle allows dust to circulate and settle in the dry air, and then when the moist humid air arrives this will cause corrosion on your vehicle if not protected with one of our car covers. Summer winds can also prove potentially hazardous, they have been known to bring dust, sand and dirt from places as far away as the Sahara Desert and South America.

Autumn is potentially the most worrying of months for vehicle owners who are not in possession of one of our car covers. Whilst the leaves falling from the trees may look beautiful and provide a breathtaking vista to behold each one of those leaves can settle on your car and ooze tree sap onto your paint work and finish. If not removed this can set like a hard gum that requires scrubbing to eliminate completely, and leaves are also packed with everything from fungus to bugs and dirty water.

As you can see our car covers are ideal for use throughout the year, particularly our lightweight breathable and waterproof half car covers, and our soft indoor car covers can be used all year round as well. If you do not see your car on our site contact us straight away and we'll provide a list of suitable covers along with a full quote as soon as possible.

Bird droppings and damaged paint

Bird droppings may seem like fairly harmless, innocuous things, however they can be potentially disastrous to your vehicle if you leave them and do not remove them as soon as they are spotted. The reason for this is that bird droppings are surprisingly acidic, and they dry out very quickly even in more humid climates. This ensures that any bird droppings on your car can be dried out within half an hour or so, and when dry they turn into a powder that can actually penetrate the pores of leather and fabrics, and even work its way into steel and carbon fibre.

When it penetrates it is there to stay; there is essentially nothing you can do to remove it. And you are left with tiny acidic grains of bird mess, slowly wearing away at your vehicle. This is why the result of bird droppings being left untreated can often be chipped and flaked paint, not something you want to discover on your brand new vehicle!

So how do you tackle this? Well obviously the best form of treatment is, in this case, prevention. A good car cover from the team at http://www.just-carcovers.co.uk will work wonders in the prevention of bird dropping related damage. We recommend the lightweight breathable car cover for maximum protection for your whole vehicle, it really is better to be safe than to be sorry. Obviously the heavy duty waterproof car cover will do a similar job if you are so inclined.

Despite this there will be times when bird droppings hit your car when it isn't covered. How do you remove them? Well if it is still wet them remove it with a damp chamois, cloth, or piece of kitchen roll. If your car is properly cleaned and waxed then you will have nothing to fear. If, however, when you spot it it has dried or has began to dry out then more drastic steps are needed.

http://www.just-carwax.co.uk should be your first port of call. Not only should you buy a high quality wax to protect your vehicle after you have removed the bird droppings, but you should also buy a car cleaning liquid or shampoo that will help you remove it. Start by wetting the bird droppings, this will make the removal process easier. When it has soaked then follow up with careful application of some vehicle shampoo and remove in one wipe. If you have to scrub or rub at the bird droppings then it is not moist enough; continue wetting and shampooing until it removes easily.

By rubbing or scrubbing you are removing all of the protective layers from your vehicles finish, and you may even alter the colour in a subtle way if you are not careful. When you have finished removing the bird droppings then be sure to give your car a proper wash and wax all over with good carnauba wax; this will ensure that future bird droppings that land on your vehicle do not penetrate very deeply and you will be able to remove them much more easily.

Volkswagen Scirocco Car Covers Now Available!

The Volkswagen Scirocco is quickly becoming a modern classic, so we felt it prudent to launch and then advertise a range of new car covers that should prove to be an excellent fit for this vehicle. The modern Volkswagen Scirocco is a re-interpretation of a vintage model, effectively it is a mark III compared to the 1982 - 1992 mark II and 1974 - 1982 mark I. Because of this it had a legacy to live up to, and you can only imagine how nervous the engineers and designers at VW must have been before releasing their new vehicle to the public!

Fortunately when it was released in 2008 the public and press loved it, praising in particular its curved, futuristic styling, it's five star EuroNCAP safety rating and wide range of engine choices catering to everything from economy to speed. Our car covers will fit any model of Volkswagen Scirocco in the mark III bracket, so anything launched in or after 2008 that bears the Volkswagen Scirocco name will be an excellent match to our car covers.

We worked closely with our suppliers in order to bring you the best quality car covers that money can buy. We have praised them on this blog ad nauseam in the past but with twenty years of experience under their belts they certainly know how to produce a high quality, long lasting, easy to use set of car covers.

Our flagship product is our Volkswagen Scirocco lightweight breathable car covers. You will be tickled pink when you see how useful these delights are; you simply fit them and walk away. No messing around drying your car, no adjusting fittings and aligning things. The elasticated fittings snap into place and your car is protected from a multitude of hazards. And because it is breathable your Volkswagen Scirocco can be soaking wet when you fit it; the cover will simply allow water to evaporate away.

We also stock a wide range of Volkswagen Scirocco indoor car covers. These are perfect for use if you keep your VW parked up in a garage or shelter, because these places can be potentially hazardous! Even dust in the air can settle on your Volkswagen Scirocco and work its way into a variety of nooks and crannies, and this can lead to rust settling in, something no-one wants to experience. By fitting one of our indoor car covers you can help prevent this slow decay over time.

We also sell a wide range of waterproof half Volkswagen Scirocco car covers. These are neat and tidy little products that fit over the cockpit or "cab" area of your vehicle (where the drivers and passengers sit). This ensures that your windows front, rear and sides are protected as well as your wing mirrors thanks to the handy little included mirror pockets. Many of our customers purchase these for use as heat shields in summer, or to prevent icing and frost in the winter.

The daddy of our selection are our heavy duty waterproof Volkswagen Scirocco car covers. These are simply astounding at protecting your vehicle from the wind and the rain, as long as you ensure you are fitting it outdoors to a dry VW you will be amazed at the level of protection they offer. And whilst it is tough and durable it is also very soft and gentle thanks to the included soft cotton liner that snuggles against your vehicle, keeping it cosy and safe.
