I just got my Mini S 2012 and I am so paranoid about her. Her name is MiMi. I do not have a garage and I am thinking of having one built just because of her got to get an estimate!) I live in a harsh climate in eastern Oregon...lots of snow and extreme, dry heat in summer. I bought a cover that is rated for sun and wet but it certainly is a pain to cover every night. The cover is heavy and hard to manage with one person. When the wind and snow start flying it will be doubly hard. Am I baby-ing her too much? She is so lovely.
