3 famous movie drivers that need car seat covers

 

It's a fact that everyone needs a good car seat cover. Whether people are frequently outdoors, forever at the beach or prone to spilling their morning coffee all over their vehicle's interior, car seat covers keep the original upholstery safe from harm. 

However, some famous characters from the world of cinema took this need for vehicle accessories just a little bit too far, getting themselves into situations well beyond what any of our customers would normally face. 

If you ever find yourself racing a convoy across an apocalyptic desert or driving a British sports car into the ocean, it's important to have the right tools for the job. 

1. Max from Mad Max: Fury Road

A bona fide Australian cinema legend, the titular character in the Mad Max series asks a lot from his vehicles. After all, how many cars come prepared to face vast desert wastelands direct from the factory?

In his latest adventure, Mad Max: Fury Road, Mr. Rockatansky's vehicle is commandeered by the evil Immortan Joe's war boys and driven through a fierce sand storm, putting his car to the ultimate test. While not quite the same, the Australian outback can be a harsh environment, and car seat covers can ensure vehicles are easy to clean in the event that people traipse dirt and dust through the interior. 

2. James Bond in A Spy Who Loved Me

Water and car seats don't mix, as this and any other liquids are great at speeding up the degradation of various interior features. James Bond put this to the test in A Spy Who Loved Me, driving a Lotus Esprit conveniently converted into an amphibious vehicle under the water. 

Bond may have trusted his Lotus to hold tight while under water, but not everyone will have this luxury. Although few Australians are likely to own vehicles capable of this amazing feat, people who tow boats and other watercraft will need custom seat covers to protect their upholstery. 

3. Jake and Elwood in The Blues Brothers

Seat covers aren't just for vehicle protection, and in some cases they can offer a greater sense of comfort over stock seats. Yet for some season, The Blues Brothers decided they should make an overnight mad dash to Chicago without the extra comfort afforded by these additions. 

So, if you want to avoid the harshness of your usual seats while also protecting your interior from all the dangers that come with overnight road trips, consider upgrading to custom seat covers.
