Car hasnt been started in a while, getting out & putting bk?

Hi guys,

I have a weekend car thats been tucked away in the garage since the beginning of September and won't be coming out until March next year.

Trouble is though, when I put it in the garage in September I have a lot going on and didn't get the chance to give it a good clean and put the breathable cover of it, to tuck it away 'properly' so to speak.

I can't get it in the garage without starting the engine (though I can roll it out). I don't really want to start the engine for all of 10 seconds because it's obviously not good for it seeing as it has been, and will be sitting around for a while, and I can't really leaving it running for 30 mins because it's quite loud and the neighbours hate me enough for it!

tl;dr version - how to get car in garage without starting it (impossible to push it in without 3 or 4 people helping)?

Any suggestions?

Daniel

Thanks for all your replies.

I'm only assuming it does the car no good to start it up and almost immediately shut it off because all the oil in the engine has sunk to the bottom?

The plan was to leave it untouched until March and change the oil / oil filter before starting it up again?

I'm perfectly happy to be proved wrong about this, I'm not the most mechanically minded of people!
