looks like one of the stupidly thin easy tear jobs, i'm tempted to get a cover, but i want one with a door really, and a decent weight or material given the way i destoy things. I've kind of got my eye on a super heavy duty one that they use at Land Rover, but they are HUGE.

Sure the heavy duty ones would be better for cars being left outside, but if the idea is to use it more as a dust cover when the car is left in a garage for long periods, I would have thought these would be ideal....

erm, well that is what i would use it for (a dust cover) but i'd still manage to rip it i suspect.

I would really like one heavy enough to stop welding splatter, but i can't see that happening!

Oh god no, not woolly enough mate, they can see a welder in cow suit from over a mile off! Crafty buggers when they want to be mate but daft as a brush when you try and chat 'em up! :P
