Car cover and storage

Alright, If I am going to keep the car I want to keep it covered from now on. I need some buying tips from yous guys on car covers.

Where should I look?

What features do I need?

Anyone got a good one for a 108 that they don't need?

Also, I am looking for cheap shop, or storage, space to rent, or even share, here in the Denver area. Any of you Colorado members know of any good deals please let me know.

Must be porous and breathable, generally water repellent but not water proof. I searched a few months ago for the best and determined there was very little difference between them unless you shell out $300. Sunlight is what they protect the car from. Ended up with $50 Walmart brand.

As you can imagine, that is what I wanted to hear!

All I really need protection from is sunlight, dust, and the crap (sometimes literally) that falls from the tree above it.
