Storage

Storage
My previous cars, and now my Mini spend 3 - 4 months stored. Looking in the Bentley manual I find zip. Looking in the owners handbook it says to 'ask your Mini dealer.'
So, any suggestions?
What I will do is up on blocks in a garage with the possibility (may not have an outlet in the garage) of a battery tender. Can the car survive without the battery connected?
I'll clean and wax it with a cover over it even though in the garage. I'll fresh change the oil and filter, Stabil in the gas with a full tank, plug the exhaust and intake to keep critters out.

I had a problem with mice getting into one of my cars. I they didn't get into the wiring, but the smell took a few weeks to fade. That car was parked under a tree near in contact of some shrubs and tall grass. The next year I parked it in a wide open area on the idea that the critters would have to run across the open space, risking attack by something. There were no problems that time.
