Reputable vendor to buy a cover ('71 bug)

[omegared]

With winter approaching I'm starting to think about how to store my '71 bug for the winter. I do not have access to a garage so am leaning the cover route. I'm assuming that like all things VW you get what you pay for, and it's worth it to drop a couple extra bucks and buy quality. Any recommendations on who caries a quality bug cover? I see them going for as low as $40ish on eBay but am assuming those are the bargain basement "You'll be sorry you bought this" variety.

I buy all of my car covers from carcovers.com. This is a different place than carcover.com. My standard is the "ultimate cover", if the vehicle is going to be stored outside. I live in Virginia that has humility, snow, and significant rain. This brand and model seems to hold up much better than than any other commercial brand I have found.

They are not the cheapest, nor the most expensive. I have at least four of them...

My Wolf car cover was tailor-made for my Bug and has lasted for about 20 years with little wear and tear. It's made of a fabric that lets water out, but prevents it from soaking in.

It wasn't cheap, though. I don't remember exactly, but I want to say it was in the $200 range, and that was 20 years ago.

I bought this one a few years ago when my bug had to sit outside for a few months. Mine was under the cover while under a covered car port with no sides so not directly hit by the elements but did get plenty of rain. I'm in FL so no snow but it worked pretty good.

The Cip1 cover is really nice. It is breathable, with a soft surface that is on the car side. Also fits perfect, and comes with a storage bag, just throw it in the trunk. A $100 well spent. No affiliation.
