An Austin Martin is a rare GT car that is made by the same company that used to produce the Aston Healey.

Shiny paint: old school.
Frozen paint: way too 2011.
White cloth bag: the new hotness.

I'm from Halifax! I actually drive down to the Autoport pretty frequently. There's a public road in the middle of it, since two people live there.

The cars are usually pretty exciting, for my taste anyways. Since it's mostly European cars, you get a ton of BMWs, Audis, Mercedes, and (arguably more than the Germans) Volvos. There's also the odd Jaguar, Land Rover, Alfa Romeo, Porsche, and Aston Martin.

You also get a handful of Mexican Jettas and Toyota Yaris'.

As for the protection of the cars, Audi is way above BMW/Mini, but Jaguar is arguably the best. The F-TYPEs are invisible from all the plastic film. Same deal with Alfa and Aston. Volvo is probably the worst offender (as much as it pains me to say), their cars don't get the plastic treatment.

My 228i convertible got stucked at the Halifax Autoport in thick ice, for the last 6 weeks... The dealer said it was just placed on the train Monday. Less than a week to get here now... It's the longest wait ever....

Anyone else cringe at 3:15 with the alloy wheel just sat on top of the lower alloy wheel faces...

I can't speak for Canada, but in the US, BMW USA insists on fully enclosed vehicle transporters. Thus the covers are redundant.

If Audi was using cheaper open transporters, the covers would come in handy.
