I can't use my Rover until the end of April due to me having used all my insurance miles up, and i refuse to buy any more additional miles (£1000 for an extra 2000 miles!) I've got 138 miles to last me until the end of April, so I think it's best that I just leave the car now and don't use it until my insurance is renewed.

Because it's going to be sitting for a decent period of time (Just over 2 months), is there anything I need to do to prepare the car to minimise any potential damage that leaving a car sitting for a bit can cause? Likewise, anything I need to do when i'm ready to drive again at the end of April?

Edit: Car has to stay on the driveway and is not garaged.
