G12 outdoor cover recommendations?

Any recommendations on an outdoor cover for a G12?

[Markr]

I did a few months worth of research and material samples before I made a decision. Whilst UK based, I purchased one of these

I have had it for over a year now, and still delighted with it. Much better than the Stormforce cover I had for my previous A8L. It covers the entire car, and 95% of the wheels, is wonderfully soft, and very easy to put on and take off.

Is it the XL2 size?

[Markr]

Mine is the XL1 size, as it’s a G11.

I have just tried the drop down menu, and it shows G12 as XL2, so yes.

Mine went on in August 2020, and has only been off every 6 weeks or so for a drive to charge the battery etc, so has been on in both hot sun, high wind, heavy rain, frost and everything in between.

This looks very similar to the Stormforce one I had for my A8L. Material was fine, but had no stretch, so was pretty loose fitting. I remember being out of the country, and my CCTV triggering an alert to me, which was the front of the cover flapping on the bonnet of the car - it was very strong wind and was only held by a central strap. I had to ask a friend to go around and take the cover off - didn’t use it after that, as had to machine polish the front bumper and bonnet (hood) afterwards.

Current cover is a stretch material, that pulls over the bumpers, and is under a tiny amount of tension, and has 3 straps - in middle, back of rear wheels and just in front of front wheels. Best cover I have ever had.
