There used to be an old boy down the road from my dads with wickedy bo car cover that was like a massive collaspsible tent.

A pivot point in the centre, one end anchors down to the ground, an the other you simply lift up, drive car out, the pull down behind whilst it still mantains a rectangular base shape, yet half cirlce side view shape.

Anyone know where the funk i can get one of these from or what there called??? Ive been searching for an hour solid on the net to no avail :(

Ok, this may sound stupid, but what about a Gazeebo type thing? Argos do them for like £15+

But if you want a proper one, look in the back of Track and Race Cars Mag, they're advertised in there regularly.
