Family,

anyone store their car outside (covered under a tarp or something) over the winter?

in Ottawa our winters are from Dec to April with temperatures dipping to as low as -40 (F and C).

I would appreciate some thoughts and thank you in advance.

Atleast get a umbrella cover which is a heavy waterproof material. Completely covers the cab and the engine cover. Is held on with one adjustable bungie at each corner.

I have mine out last winter cuz another 914 was in the garage so I know it works good.

Now if you trunk seals leak, time to fix those.

Perry Kiehl makes and sells em.
