Lightweight Rain proof cover

where is a good place to get a 'fitted' rain proof cover?
Needs to be something i can keep in the back of the Avon
Any idea on prices?

Many Thanks

SoftBitForSevens do a very nice one.... infact they do individual ones for quite a few Se7en flavours....

I know cos my bro got me one for Chrimbo...

Not cheap though!!!!

Softbits are doing mine at the moment, should be finished this week, it's about £220 quid for a Tonneau, might not be the cheapest but you get what you pay for and the service and quality is second to none.

You getting a tonneau, but what about a fitted full car cover? have you seen them...they look nice on the website, but do you know the cost...200 quid and a load of pressstuds on the car is not what i'm looking for....

thanks a lot

I'm looking at trying to recreate the SoftBitForSevens easy-access type soft-top using an industrial sewing machine.....

A lightweight rainproof cover ain't that much though.... 100ish IIRC....

Sure is more expensive than a 20 quid Argos job (but they rip like they're made out of toilet paper)....

How about the 'surreydave' route, not totally rain proof in the way you want it, but a very good starting point though
You do need a screen to copy his design though
