    OK, you have one spare. But, where can they, if they can, be purchased now?

    Thanks!

    I commissioned this cover and I will need to get it adjusted as it's a little baggy for my liking by the doors. Once I'm happy with it I will post a pic on the car. The fabric is the same as the oem modern fabrics.

    Bringing this thread up from the dead. I am looking for a 246GT car cover that actually fits the car.

    I've used this UK company for several car specific car covers (AM DB4-II, Dino 246M and even a BMW 507). The 507 cover didn't fit perfectly, so they made another one at no charge! So I've repurposed that cover to my Z8. My Dino cover is yellow...since the Dino is yellow. And lots of customization options. Not sure about the Dino logo, but no problem with a Ferrari logo.

    Very high quality indoor covers.

    I can vouch for Tony's recommendation as I bought a couple of covers from Andrea at Covercar at the same time and they are very good quality and just like the OEM ones supplied with a new Ferrari. They will put the Dino logo on the cover if you request it.

    Exactly ! How do you know it fits at all, let alone actually a 246 GT (which was the question you seemingly answered to) ? ;)

    You think Eurospares or another merchant are going to display the covers on every single model?

    How do you buy anything.

    Its a generic car cover, if its anything like the those on sale at Superformance, they fit like your Nan's bloomers, occasionally they may touch the sides!

    Far from it. Particular model, tagged as such, and Genuine Ferrari part.

    Have you personally tried its fit on a Dino 246 GT or two and can perhaps provide photos to prove it ?

    Why don't you call the merchant and ask them to resolve your concerns.

    The cover I purchased is for my specific model and fits great.

    Here’s fit of car cover I mentioned in my earlier post. All panels plus mirrors in yellow, black piping, Ferrari logo.

    Material is very soft but stretchy. Made to order.

    Shouldn't it say DINO? A Dino is not a Ferrari o_O

    With a stable like that, it is a foolproof endorsement. Good deal Ron!

    I'm using the factory, thin red cover that came with the 458 Italia. Otherwise all the other cars have this same brand of cover from Classic Additions.
