I was asked about a complete weatherproof cover for our Roadsters at the weekend and thought i'd share this website with everyone as one option.
They offer a standard storm cover for protecting you car whilst parking under trees when out and about, or the full weatherproof cover if you have to park up outside for prolonged periods
Maybe you have experience of an alternative suppliers product??

Hi Terry
Just seen your e about Morgan covers and alternative suppliers
I use a John Taylor cover - On roadster and previous Morgan
Covers windscreen cockpit and top of luggage rack.
Held at front by 2 elastic webbing to loop over head lights and 4 loops at rear. Plus small loops for door handles and bonnet knob
A 30 second job for driver and passenger to fit to keep prying eyes out some sense of security.
A lot longer if no helpful passenger to untangle
Bundle onto sack 7 inch dia X 12 inch. Amazon green!

Hi Terry et al,
I have had tremendous service out of a Morgan Storm cover for the last 3 years that I have owned the car.
Easy to fit behind the seat in it’s carrier, it is readily deployed - hood up, or hood down. Apart from the bonnet, it does not touch paintwork, avoiding abrasion from dust or road grime. The Morgan logo across the windscreen looks smart too. Thoroughly agree that it adds a thin, but all important, first layer of security. When the Mog is in our open garage at home, the storm cover protects the hood from the local cats and the incontinent bird population.
This is the only cover I take when touring. A full cover over even a light dusty car, can be variably abrasive to the paint surface, no matter how soft the inner fleece. My friendly and tremendously experienced car valeting guy, advises only to use full covers after a clean; preferably this should be a fleece cover, such as:
I have a red one, it looks stylish, has an inner piece to protect the hood from ‘fluff’; it is easy to use and has a good quality bag to hold it.
For longer winter lay-ups, the fleece is the covered by a good quality after market Weatherproof full cover.
Hope this has some value in the conversation?
Currently she is quite happily sitting bare of any cover in Lake District drizzle!!
Best wishes
Willie Austin

For those of us, unlike myself and Nick Taylor, who have owned a John Taylor Protective Cover for some years ( Since 2008), it should be made clear that Phoenix Design Services is the Company that John Taylor still operates through.

Morgan Hood Frame 'Swivel Pivots', Complete Car Covers, Storm covers and stainless steel round door mirrors
The innovative Hood Frame Swivel Pivots were first launched at the Cheltenham Morgan festival 2001 and became the answer to many Morgan Owners prayers for installing the hood without bruised fingers, torn hoods and possible broken windscreens. Although many years later with the recent re-design of hoods, the Swivel Pivots still satisfy many Morgan owners of traditional fold down hoods
Now being made of quality Stainless Steel and hand polished, they have become recognized the world over to make the fitting of traditional Hoods easier.
Building upon the experience, customer satisfaction and quality being the main features, the Unique Morgan Storm Cover came into being 2003. Whilst traveling extensively throughout the U.K and Europe the overall storm cover evolved from practical use and added protection from the elements.
Covering the bonnet vents from rainwater ingress to the engine bay and protecting the cockpit area, the Storm covers are 100% waterproof, lightweight and easily folded away into a handy storage bag behind the seat, or on the parcel shelf. Designed and further improved with the helpful feedback from Morgan owners of Thames Valley, Oxmog and a ‘trim’ specialist they are available in 4 colours to compliment the owners sports car trim.Cockpit Covers are also available using the 4oz lightweight high specification material, 100% waterproof and Breathable.
Aero 8's from series 1 upwards and now the series 5, 4 seaters, the New Morgan +8 and traditional 2 seatersdue to popular demand, we now only offer the 4 layer Premier + Complete Car Cover manufactured from highly water resistant materials with a soft underside to allow the cover to breathe and reduce the effects of any possible dust abrasions. This cover provides protection against UV-Rays, rain, wind, smog, acid rain, snow and ice. Not only for outside use but also for interior use as a dust cover during the winter months for that extra protection. The Premier + car cover has been sourced to fit our Morgan’s and be competitively priced to suit all models.
