Default F-type car cover?

Anyone get a car cover yet? I'll be storing mine indoors for the winter, so I don't need Jaguar's all-weather one. Doesn't look like they have an indoor one. Any suggestions? Thanks.

There are quite a few on Ebay. Pick your price point. You don't need much for indoor storage unless you are looking for protection from bumping into the car.

Look at CoverCraft FormFit. Amazingly gentle on paint and fits awesome!

Coverking has some beautiful fitted ones, but I didn't find any for the F-type yet from anyone, other than Jaguar (at $425). I ended up with a cheap Coverking universal cover.

I store mine inside too. LOL, the Corvette C6 cover that I had fits well except for the mirror pockets.

Having spent so much on the car, and it living in a concrete cave that generates a lot of concrete dust, with people sliding by occasionally, I opted for the best I could find:

F-Type Covercraft C17617GK AutoSport Evolution 4 Plus Car Cover Gray

Search for that item on Amazon - there are a couple of sellers - $200-255

I was a bit worried in that the picture is of a Jeep, but I am very pleased with the product. It's a great fit, with "ears" for the mirrors, well made, a good solid layered product, with a soft inner layer, and a very slightly padded outer structure that looks like it should absorb most casual dings. I'll take a pic next time I'm down there with a phone or camera.

Pictures as promised of the F-Type under the fitted Covercraft Evolution.

F-Type in foreground, the one in the background is my Stag, under a Covercraft Noah, a slightly cheaper version if memory serves.

Overall neat fit from side.

Just got a generic covercraft. Grey, thick and breathable. Fits perfectly (and I do mean perfectly), INCLUDING the mirror pockets!!

Default Cover for F-Type

Just purchased a Coverking Satin Stretch for indoor use (only) and waiting for it to be made and delivered (and will post comments and opinions once I receive it)

CoverKing site still indicates the Satin Stretch is not available for the F-Type, did you find differently when you contacted them? or ordered something else?

I recently received my Cover King Satin Stretch car cover for the Coupe. It was ordered from a Cover King reseller.

Very nice cover and fits well. I'd recommend it.

I spoke with their head marketing guy - at least I think he was (he was surely head of something at Coverking; and a nice guy) - who said, "yes we have it for the F-Type Coupe", and he said I should see it in about 2 weeks or so. Hope this helps.

I live in Florida and was considering an indoor/outdoor cover to protect the interior and exterior from the sun. Cover Craft has a Sunbrella fabric for that purpose. Do you think it is needed with the materials that are used today like the xirallic paint?
