Looking for 6 series GC outdoor cover

Anyone any idea where in the world I might still be able to get an official BMW Genuine Outdoor Car Cover 6 Series Gran Coupe F06 82152210730? I plan on keeping my M6GC and as it’s outside really want one of these fitted covers - new or used (in good condition!). Thanks in advance....

Have you checked with your local BMW dealer or some other dealers in the UK?

There is one on the Bay:

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Original-...s84F:rk:1:pf:0


Or much cheaper from this US BMW dealer (have to add shipping then):

Thanks and sorry for the delay in replying - most of these adverts subsequently say they can’t get them anymore

And...

I have tried local and international Bmw dealers and all say no stock - I would pay handsomely for a new one even used one!

The listing on the Bay was active and the product available when I posted it although at an absurd price.
If BMW dealers no longer have availability for the cover then probably the latter isn't being produced anymore and there is also no official or other part nr. replacement for it. If you want a genuine BMW outdoor cover at all costs, then your best bet is to check those of other BMW series models and find one that comes close to it in terms of dimensions.

I’ve “bought it online 4 times ($400-700) only to be told that they now realise that cant get stock and they have to refund me

Thanks for your help. I’m newbie to the forum and also just placed a Wanted ad
So hoping that might generate some interest.

Thanks, yeah, I’ve found that a few times which is why I have bought it online a few times now only to be told they realise they can’t get stock and refunded me. That’s an interesting idea about finding a similar one. My only fear is as this future style one is quite a snug fit so it’s going to be hard to find a similar cars version

The one on the bay was very helpful - I did actually buy it from them but they went onto try and source it elsewhere when they couldn’t source it but eventually accepted defeat and refunded me.

I believe that the BMW covers are made by Covercraft. You can probably have one shipped.

When checking the actual item they say (no longer available). But when you check amongst all products related to the F06 models it says available between 3 to 5 business days. Thus there is contrasting information there.
If really available and in case you need help with ordering from Leebmann24 just PM me.

Thanks again, I’ll call them in the morning to confirm for sure. Quite new to the site so haven’t worked out how to PM anyone yet but sure I’ll work it out.

I contacted them 1st things first this morning and they unfortunately confirmed that the cover is out of stock and is no longer being delivered by BMW AG. It's basically and EOL (end-of-life) product. Their marketing department forgot to remove it from the shop.

Indeed Havy and Germany would be my only hope. It's just not easy to determine that since it's not one of the most advertised products. However you know if Leebmann does not have it the chances are slim to none that someone else will.
An idea could be to make an official request in Munich at BMW AG and they could source the dealers by finding out perhaps with just a few clicks if anyone have old stocks of this product.....

Thank you, you’re right. If Leebmann is out of stock the chances are very very small.
The idea with Munich is super. I just sent them an E-Mail.
