New Indoor Union Jack Car Cover

Look what Santa Claus left under our Christmas tree for my 1990 V12 Vanden Plas, a new indoor Union Jack Car cover. It is the medium sized one from Welsh Enterprises in Ohio, USA. It just barely fits, maybe it will stretch a little in use?

Merry Christmas, Paul,
I bought one of these the winter before last. It, too, was a really tight fit, and did not stretch. In my unheated garage the cover absorbed moisture when the humidity rose with the weather we had, and I wound up taking it off and giving it away to a friend who has a (much smaller) MGTD.
Nice enough cover, though!

Striking for sure. I’ve been aware of the moisture issues with covers.

And, do I suspect it is/was of Asian origin?

Seems that two things are possible there.

  1. Asians cut and sew tighter.

A. Saves on material.
B. Things are smaller.

I have found that some pants I have bought that were of Asian origin, are my size numericaly, but just too tight in the crotch area. the distance between the in seam and the belt line.

Carl, either the pants are getting smaller, or we are getting larger. Let’s go with “the pants are getting smaller.” I’m ok with that.

Dave:

Whichever, it is what it is. So, I just compensate.

Got out a pair of flannel lined pants. It is cold and the wind is up just a bit. BRRRR

Coco and I just got back in to the warm house. Glad I had my warm pants on.

Snoozed til 6 !!! An extra hour. Warm bed felst good. Extra blanket added!!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL

Carl
