Anyone using a Carcoon for their Z?

[Old MrT]

As the title says, I was toying with selling mine but if I do keep her she'll have to go outside for a bit while I do some work on my Anglia so I was thinking about using a carcoon, is anyone else using one?

I used to keep my GT6 in a carcoon, they are very good for long term storage.

Was it stable in windy conditions? the carcovers tend to blow around a fair bit rubbing the paint work.

It needs to be anchored down but there is a good gap between the cover and the bodywork.

Okey doke thank you, that sounds promising then

My old Boss kept his Mk.2 Jag in one.

They do indoor and outdoor ones. Outdoor ones are stronger and waterproof.
I used an indoor one in my barn before I dug my inspection pit. It’s like a big drive in frame tent and fantastic as a glorified dust cover, no faffing about taking a cover on & off, just unzip the door and go. They do inflate, supposedly to keep a flow of air for ventilation, but I found that after a cold spell followed by warmer weather, condensation formed as the warm moist air being blown in condensed on the cold metal of my car. Just switched the fan off and used it as a zipped up frame tent after that.

Thanks for the replies guy's, if I'm reading the blurb correctly I think the outside ones have a drying mode that you use after you've taken the car out and put back in again, just to get any moisture out.
