I wouldn't cover a car with a tarpaulin or anything like that. At least in
the open it will dry out between the showers! (I once kept a fairly new car
in a really well-sealed garage, and regularly put it away wet - the rate it
rusted was astonishing.)
FWIW, we keep our caravan under a close-fitting breathable cover over winter
and not only does it keep the rain off (no leaks) but it's dry as a bone
underneath the cover. The cover was quite expensive, but I'm sure for LR
purposes any breathable material would do the same.
