My car lives under a carport and I used to have a decent RAC branded car cover for it, grey rubbery outer, with a soft felt inner cover. But it didn't survive this winter, so I bought a cheapy from Argos. That didn't survive the night, after the cat got it's claws stuck in it.......

So I'm after recommendations for a good quality, heavy duty car cover that will fit the Indy, preferably on ebay. It would also be handy if I could pack it up reasonably small, so I could use it on tour at the end of this month.

My builders tarp / umbrella combo looks a bit pikey:-



I'm also after a new pair of driving shoes. I have previously used Adidas Tuscany's:



but they seem to have discontinued them! My last two pairs have split across the middle of the sole.

Spent Saturday wandering in and out of sportswear shops in town, and I think I'm more suited to internet shopping. The thumping bass music / chavs and lazy disinterested shoe shop assistants were not to my liking

What are you guys wearing???

I saw these at the show

70 quid but the quality is to die for....


Ive not used these guys http://www.trainerstation.com/motor-racing-m-9.html

most puma trainers are narrow enough to hit each pedal seperately!

Must admit I wear a cheap pair of karting boots when driving the Tiger. (I carry a pair of trainers to slip on when stopped somewhere so don't look a complete berk when away from the car.)
Not only are they narrow for the closely spaced floor pedals, the sole allows a smoother uptake of the clutch (BEC) whereas I find that trainers soles don't allow the pedal to 'slide' under the foot so uniformly meaning less control engaging clutch when pulling away.

hi, i were a pair of sparco raceing boots, and they are great not sure on cost or where from my parents gave them to me, i did not even know where get them from.lol
