Col, Happy to chat with you about this at some point, as I come from the outdoor clothing industry. You have to look at what you want for the primary use, then it's really a matter of cost, Gore products being more expensive, proprietary waterproof technologies being less expensive, for driving you don't need something that is hugely breathable as you aren't moving about a lot, most high end shells probably don't have folding hoods & have large helmet compatible hoods (for climbers) which act like a parachute, some cycling jackets can be good as they have a high neck & shorter body which is better for driving, I tend to use a soft shell when it's not raining to keep the wind out then I have a few different waterproof Jackets a mix of cycling, outdoor & lifestyle. I'd suggest going onto Snow & Rock, Cotswold Outdoor & Chain Reaction Cycles websites as a start. key features you need: Waterproof, Breathable, stowable hood
