It's that time of year again when, if you keep your VW outside, it gets battered by the elements. I used this to cover my 74 Bug. It's a 4-layer Stormforce car cover (model CCC 248 - correct for Beetles), and did a great job of protecting the car (it's waterproof, and breathable). The elasticated front and rear hooked over the bumpers, and the underbody retaining straps kept it in place during windy weather. Here’s the blurb from the web site:
Stormforce 4-Layer Car Cover to fit your Volkswagen
This car cover is water resistant yet breathable to allow damp & moisture to escape. Features double stitching for strength, non-scratch latest generation material in a silver colour and is elasticated front and rear. The fabric is 100% UV resistant and protects against rain, frost, snow, birds, tree sap, sunlight, dirt & dust. Supplied in a strong zipped storage bag, this cover takes up very little space and can be tucked away in the boot when not in use. Sturdy detachable underbody straps are provided, so however stormy the weather, you know your car is secure & protected from the elements.
This car cover has been cleverly designed to fit your Volkswagen model. It is not a universal cover as offered elsewhere, it's a tailored fit!
Breathable 4 layer fabric to allow moisture & damp to escape
Welded seams & double stitched hems for strength & long life
Detachable Underbody securing straps with soft silicone fastener covers
Elasticated front and rear hems for a snug fit
100% Ultra violet resistant fabric to prevent paint fade
Special waterproof, breathable membrane layer
Side panel eyelets included for optional locking kit
Separate sturdy zipped storage bag
I bought it here, about 3 years ago, and it hasn’t been used for the past year.

Thanks.
