Keeping Evora outside..

Just remember that removing the carpet from the seal effectively lowers the seal from the boot lid slightly.

Does anyone have any experience of the Clarke temp garages?

There is a large one at a shady car dealer down the road, it has been there for several years, but it is well sheltered, I think if you had it in a windy area it would need to be well fixed down. I had a plastic small shed that blew itself to pieces years ago.

@Kevin Wheeler has one for his Esprit I think

 

Worth getting a windscreen sun shield for sure.

I kept mine under car port with outdoor cover, never had an issues, but wasn't used as a daily, same with the Elise.  Down side with cover is that you really shouldn't put one over a dirty car in case you scratch the paintwork.

Fingers crossed for the viewing / purchase 🙂

I do have one.

I bought it in the summer to replace an Autopod that I bought from Hamilton Classic Ltd - I cannot see that they do these anymore.

The Clarke one is very sturdy but they expect you to secure it to a lawn rather than concrete. It does need tying down somehow. There are screw holes in the feet to secure it.

However, the biggest problem that I am finding now that winter has arrived (I have only had it for 6 or 7 months) is the amount of condensation that I am getting inside. The car is ending up dripping wet. This was not a problem with the Hamilton Classic one because it was double skinned and did not produce condensation.

There is no point putting a heater into the current one because it is single skinned vinyl and does not have a sealed groundsheet. I need to experiment. Fans/ventilation maybe.

I am happy to answer any questions on it.

I did read an amazon review and they added an extra tarp to effectively double skin it due to condensation.

I have an outdoor cover that I have put on the car recently, but yes, I think putting an extra tarp (probably on the inside) would work.

I am still experimenting, so any suggestions will be gratefully received!
