Hi All,

I shall be insuring dad’s car in the next few days.
It has been sat on my drive since October, I charged the battery yesterday and it started with no issues this morning.

As it’s been sat for several months is there anything in particular I should be doing? I’ll be taking it for an mot next week, but it’s only done around 200 miles since the last mot, so I don’t think it should have any problems passing.

I’d also like to take it to the nano meets if they still happen?

Mike

Good to see this post Mike , Next Nano meet is 20th July.
your main problem with an MOT where the car has been stood a lot is rust.
