I'm looking for a seat cover/protector so I can just jump in the car after a wet/muddy/sweaty ride.

The billabong one looks like it should do the job, anyone any first hand experience of one?

Got a couple of waterproof car seat covers from Aldi for a lot less than that. They're waterproof and cover the seat.

Also worth a look in farmer's shops, like Mole Valley.

Does that really cover the whole seat / sides etc ? Looks just like a "sit on". As per CFH look on farm shops / websites. Simple harwearing green plastic covers, useful if they cover the back of the seat too so your muddy bike / dog etc don't get dirt there.

+1 on rural / farm shops. One of ours is cheap aldi, and not really waterproof. The other is fully waterproof, no matter what.

Town and Country are the agricultural standard, they outlast vehicles and survive spaniels.

The billabong one looks like a neoprene towel, looks quick to fit and remove.

Bike goes on the roof so no worries about the rear of the seat. I've had cheap ones on the past that let dust and moisture through.

I'll check out some farmers shops and the O'Shea ones too.

ION make neoprene covers that are easy to fit and work well. You need to add elastic to the plastic clips depending on the size of your seats though. They are just plain black with the I logo on the headrest.
Not sure on UK availability but should be okay.

I have two of these. I really like them as they are quick to put on the seat then roll up etc.

You do have to be careful though when getting in, as it is just like a towel and will skew slightly, leaving a wet/muddy spot on the side of your seat.

However, really good after a muddy ride and not as hot as sitting on some of the other materials.

G'day from OZ.

We don't have Billabong here and I'm looking for neoprene car seat covers for my Nissan. Got 2 young ones and we love camping, the beach and stuff. A mate recommended these guys https://dingotrails.com.au/product-category/seat-covers/nissan/

Just wondering on the odd chance anyone might have tried them before? Real easy to fit apparently. They ship international so trying my luck asking around on here. Cheers guys

I got a set of Titan covers recently, vehicle specific. Very thick nylon and cover the whole seat. Pack up quite big, bombproof.

I've got a Billabong neoprene seat cover, I find it very useful to keep the mud off the seats. You just hook it over the headrest. As mrwhyte says it can get caught up as you sit thougth. It is also warmer to sit on first thing on cold days if you don't have heated seats.
