Lay up for winter?

[Rowly]

Hi all how do you all tend to lay up your Z3’s for winter?
ive got mine in the garage (not heated)
Roof up, windows closed.
Hand brake off
In Park, it’s auto
Only quarter of a tank of fuel
Does anyone recommend anything different?
TIA

There's a section in the owners manual on this, from memory, overinflate the tyres, fill up to prevent condensation in the tank. Pop in something to capture the moisture. Battery maintainer or isolate.

Use it every day and wash it weekly. Far the best solution.

I’m only going to drive it in the dry as I want to keep the rust minimal it’s only done 46k so it’s kind of a investment for me too

Roof up windows down to let air move around interior hand brake off car covered with breathable cover battery connected to a conditioning charger to keep battery in good condition do not start car when in storage for winter as this can cause condensation in the engine don't start till spring when you are going to start useing it and check tyre pressure before storage
