Rain Cover for portable machine

What with all the rain we are having at the moment i was wondering what others use to protect their portable from the rain if like me you prefer to leave it outside customers home. When possible i will leave on van in these circumstances but not always feasible. I have the Airflex Storm so not really ideal to take into home unless it is a big house. I currently use a small plastic tarp and weight it down but even then if it is windy it can blow off, any suggestions?

The machine custom cover looks exactly what i am looking for except for the price, £285
Has anyone tried a barbecue cover from B & Q or the like?

I think I use a BBQ cover. I say I think because I found it in the garden on a very windy day.
The elasticated bottom does the job nicely

Don't think it would fit as the jags shape is long and thin also no holes in it for hoses or filling so useless on a wet windy normal day in the west of Scotland.

Any pictures and how much did they charge

We used to use a golf umbrella, allows good ventilation and access to controls, bit iffy in high winds, but you can shock-cord it to various projections.
