    I would imagine you just unscrew the aerial before putting the cover on.

        I've used specialised car covers in the past. I've bought two covers from them, two for internal use and one for external. Not cheap but very good quality.

        They are a UK company based in Yorkshire.

          The Halfords cover in the link does fit well.

          I bought one and had it on for a weekend. I went to do something on the zed on the Monday. pulled the cover back a bit and the car was soaking with condensation. So i've not used it again since. The car was completely dry before I fitted it.

          I am not convinced there is a good solution to the car cover problem. My e30 is in a Clarke instant garage but it can rain inside from condensation in the winter.. Summer project for me will be to get a shed up big enough for my zed and e30. Ive also looked at those carcoon jobs which might be a better solution than a cover, just not very easy to take the car in and out of regularly

            There are covers made in breathable fabric to overcome the issue of condensation. I've an outdoor cover for my old 635csi which is both waterproof and breathable. The two internal covers I have are also breathable fabric, although the garage has good circulation and a dehumidifier in the colder months so I cant be certain how effective the actual cover is when the environment is good.

            I would give specialised car covers a look on their website.
