Laying up for winter

[S6 Devil]

I'm thinking of laying the car up for winter and SORNing it

What do I need to do to maintain it as best I can?

What pressure should I put in the tyres to prevent flat spots?

It's on a trickle charger and under a nice warm cover.


Any advice would be much appreciated

Get it driven. The top end will thank you for it!

I'm just about to scrape the snow off mine and go find a quiet car park.

if you have the balls for it why not a partly filled carpark
everybody can drive on a quiet one

Looks like the general consensus is to keep driving it throughout!

I´m aware of my own abilities. I´ll stick to empty ones.

I lay mine up every winter, saves all the salt and s**t from the roads getting in and corroding things.

Mine sits outside as I don't have a garage but I do put a trickle charger on and a cover. Every month I start it and move it just to make sure it's not seizing up or anything.

Other than that, I don't do anything until it's time to go back on the road for summer when I get it's yearly service done.

This is what I'm planning. Is there ever an issue with the dampers leaking come springtime?
