I have a used Genuine BMW one. Does have 2/3 tears from memory, 1 at base and 1 on windscreen from wiper catching it. They were taped back up from inside. £80 delivered? Think I still have original bag and box.

Sounds perfect for what I'm after,
Are these a good fit?
Do they have the mirror socks etc?

Cheers,
Paul.

Yes mate, perfect fit. They could do with some ties for when it gets windy, but I'm sure you can rig something up if it's for the race car.

Yep, mine fits a treat:

Steve, a little tip, what I do is Cling Wrap around the base on outdoor car covers. Works a treat and never comes off even in high winds.

Is that the bmw cover from bmw? Mine didn't fit like that and ended up with cover rubs because there's no linning on the inside?

That will be its main job Steve as I now have no water integrity with those windows....lol
It will also get used on the CSL though so good that it fits well.

Thanks for the pics today Alex, looks perfect :D

Good tip Alex

I used it before you talked me into the cartoon ....

I have kept it just in case.

Paul perfect for what you need and the cling film trick would stop any rubbing
