Pinot Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 My new Mazda 2 is getting covered with bugs sitting in the open air carpark under a light. Better to buy one from the dealer or a generic one? How much? I don't use the car that often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guzzi850m2 Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 I bought one in Big C for app. 7-800 bath, fit my City perfect. A silver thing that protect for UV and keep the temp. down inside the car. Sadly our damned dogs bite it to bits so I am not using it anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kwasaki Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 (edited) Never saw a dealers one but I have two types in the silver UV. First one 5 years old from an auto shop is flimsly and quite strong and still good. The name on the front of it is BEEBON. The one I bought later from Big 'C' 2 years old, is or feels thicker, easier to get on and off car but it has started to tear and fall to bits. This one hasn't got a name on it , I name it ' CRAP ' They were both around a 1000baht. Edited May 13, 2011 by Kwasaki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rics21 Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 get a generic one, u can get the better as in thicker ones at the mall or central approx 1,000+, cheaper ones at Big C or tesco lotus approx 800 and the crappy ones at Krong thom market approx 500.

guzzi850m2 Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 I think 2 years lifespan is OK for a 800 bath one. If you buy a very good one it might go "missing" one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rayinkrabi Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 All sounds good in theory..but surely unless the motor is perfectly clean sliding a cover on n' off will scratch the surface? My mate left his truck with me some time ago with a nice cover to put on..NO way am I using that..who knows what you will find in the back when you pull it off :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rayinkrabi Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 (edited) This was the best thing I could think of for my ex-wifes car cover..it made a perfect bed for my dogs new pups (my ex-wife was def NOT amused :-) Edited May 15, 2011 by rayinkrabi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredob43 Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 When I got my Vigo also got Toyota cover that was over 5 year's ago, have now sold the car to a mate with the cover that is still as good a new. Was about 2.000bt but I think worth it. At the same time got one from Big C for the motor bike 300bt lasted about 3 month's by then it was buggered. Pay's your money take's your choice.
