We have one from specialised covers, it came with the van which we have had since 2006 and was used by the previous owners extensively.  Good quality and never causes us a problem.

We had a Pro-tec cover on our previous caravan, which we sold on to a neighbour  last Autumn and  he is now using it on his van.  We bought a new Bailey 18 months ago and immediately purchased another Pro-tec as we were so impressed with the quality and  performance.  Unfortunately we won't be able to get away in the van again this year so last weekend we gave  her a good wash and got the cover on ready for this winter!  I know that there is differing opinion within the forum regarding whether to use a cover or not but we are very pleased with ours and would always use one in the absence of being able to secure undercover storage.

Where we live we have to use a cover and we have a Pro-Tec. Fabulous!
Quality material, perfect fit and brilliant customer service. I accidentally stepped on one of the plastic clips on the securing straps a while back and Pro-Tec sent a replacement out the next day FOC.

It is really a 2-person job getting the thing on but once you've got the knack you can more or less "walk it over" in one go. They send two telescopic poles with the cover to help you slide the cover over.

We wash the van each time we return and it is such a joy to uncover a beautifully clean and shiny van at the start of each trip. No bird poo. No dead leaves and no spider webs! YAY!
