park it up
take battery off
lock doors
fit car cover
Thats all u need worry about.
axel stands are a good idea will keep the damp off
Do not fit a car cover which blocks air flow.
Its going into a locked garage. Not worried about tyres as they're all borderline legal anyway.
Ditto, did mine not long back and forgot to do this.Quote:

I often leave my 19 standing for 6 months or so at a time. Do nothing at all with it, just park it, leave it in gear with the handbrake only lightly on, and lock it up. It always needs jump starting off, but it's been stood up regularly like that now over the last 3 - 4 years without any problems
