Default Leaving a car without a battery.

I'm taking my Rover 75 diesel off the road for nine months.
I no longer have a 12 volt battery to keep in the vehicle.
Will this have an adverse effect on the cars electronics system?
Please advise, I can't find any information in my drivers handbook.
thanks, Kev.

I've had mine off the road for nearly 11 months now and I connected the battery for the first time yesterday and all was okay!
