We sell the CoverKing covers, and they do fit well and hold up well.  Mosom
or Stormshield are the ones to go with in the CoverKing line. (Actually I
believe they have renamed Stormshield, but we still refer to it as
Stormshield on our site.)

However, our best selling Vanagon cover by far is the one we import from
Just Kampers. At $139 it's quite inexpensive, but has a unique feature;
zippered access to your doors while the cover is installed. This is great
for periodically starting your van, or just getting belongings out. (There
is a flap under the zipper so it won't scratch your paint.)  Having been
designed in England, where they know a thing or two about rain, it's well
suited for all but the most severe winter weather (which Stormshield would
be better for, albeit at twice the price).

You can find details on all of these, as well as an explanation of
Stormshield, Mosom, etc., on our van cover info page:
