What a pisser. I wonder if it was another XK8 owner that needed one or just a vandal. It was in my back seat, not attached.

 

I take it you are referencing the Stowage Cover?
Discussed here as far as colors.

I think it is called a boot cover, but this is it

 

I guess it goes without saying that convertibles are easy targets for thieves, even with the top up. Store any valuables in the boot.

 

JEPC refers to it as a STOWAGE COVER available in many colors.
I would call a BOOT COVER a trunk-lid. A boot is what the US calls the TRUNK.
The HOOD is the convertible top.
Maybe a HOOD COVER? is the stowage cover?
But then a hood in the US is a BONNET.

 

😂 That's what I was thinking when he said boot cover! I was thinking...the trunk lid? And it was in the backseat? I was all sorts of confused.

In any event y'all are talking the same thing and that sucks. Just try to look at it as passive karma. I have really stopped trying to get upset at all all if things get stolen from me. I leave my windows down if it's not going to rain, doors unlocked etc. on one hand, I do it because I can easily just not leave valuable things inside and a smashed window is pretty expensive to replace. If I leave the door unlocked and someone wants to creep in there, they're not going to smash my window to do it. Well, there's less of a chance. I just figure if someone really went to all that trouble then they must have needed it for some reason. If you are able to replace it then like I said, passive karma

 

Sorry, but I hate Liars, and Thieves! If they'd Steal they'd Lie, and if they Lie they'd Steal. They need to spend some time in a Jail Cell. Preferably a long time. Just my Thoughts.

I would highly recommend this company. When I had my XKR I had them make me a boot cover out of canvas. It was absolutely beautiful. If I can find a photo I will post it.
