They may be among the most ubiquitous vehicles on the road, but the humble hatchback is poorly served by car-cover manufacturers.
For owners of the Focus, Astra, Golf, et al, it is very much a case of buying a saloon-style cover and accepting its shortcomings.
Accessory specialist Hamilton Classic has now remedied that failing with the introduction of a semi-tailored outdoor cover specifically for such models.
Made of Hamilton Classic’s exclusive Moltex material which is waterproof, breathable, and uniquely has a soft fleece lining, it differs from the conventional saloon cover in that it incorporates a curved back, thus ensuring a snug fit which both looks pleasing and offers better protection.
It is available in small, medium and large, at prices from £97. Information and delivery details are available from Hamilton Classic @ (www.hamiltonclassic.co.uk ).
