I have the same problem with my little Kip van - at only 10ft length it's very hard to find a winter cover. An extra large car cover (for a 4x4) might work, but don't buy a plastic one, like I did, they rip very easily.. get one made from fabric (a bit like shower curtain fabric) and if possible, breathable as well.

I had a 12-14ft cover given to me and I use this for my van over winter. It's mah-hoosive! I can get the whole of the caravan including the tow hitch covered with it! Still, for a compromise, it's ok.

The only other thing I can think of is adapting an old tent or something of that ilk!

You would think, now that the smaller vans are becoming more popular, that someone out there would make a smaller cover for them. You can get them made to measure, but they cost a lot of money.

My OH got her sewing machine out to convert a larger cover to fit our Trigano Silver.
