MINI Car Cover

I am looking at getting a Car cover. here are the ones I am looking at.

The are both on the web page.

The first one is the NOAH and the other one is the Evolution® (Technalon®).

Please help me decide.

My experience with both fabrics. The evolution fabric is thicker and might provide a bit more protection against small hailstones or other impacts. The NOAH fabric is more water resistant, (but neither is waterproof).

Being less bulky, the NOAH cover is easier to store/wash than the Evolution one. Both seem to hold up very well over time. My biggest problem is the covers get dirty pretty quick and since they are not completely waterproof, especially the Evolution one, rain goes through the cover and gets the car very dirty unless you clean the cover often.

I'd chose the NOAH cover if the car is outside most of the time, Evolution if it's being covered inside.

Don't even think of putting either one in a dryer.
