Does anyone on here take their megane or any other car off the road for winter? I've bought a cheap runaround to use until about April time, What do I need to do to the Megane before I put it in the garage?
Tyres are almost all bald anyway, thats one of the main reasons its coming off the road lol. Cheaper to buy a cheap car and wait for the weather to perk up and then get RSRs or similar.
Yeah I'd imagine so Ste, bought a little polo as a runaround for cheaper than 2 tyres with mot until July
Yup, only tax the RS250 for 6 months these days, garaged on a battery conditioner and under cover till April now the roads are covered in salt etc
I keep the 7 on a CTEK conditioner if it's not going to be used for a while. That said, I disconnected the battery for a few weeks and when I checked it this weekend it was still full, no issues with the cold. It's back on the conditioner for a little while now though. Other than that, a cover in the garage is all it gets. Should probably take my tyres off and fit the old ones just to take the pressure off them though.
Brim fuel tank, stops condensation occurring, over inflate tyres, trickle charge and maybe place four squares of cut carpet under tyres stop sticking to floor
I've taken my inferno Megane off the road every winter since I've had it. Although getting it back on the road afterwards has always take longer than anticipated hence the low mileage. I have it parked in a dry garage, covered and on rubber tiles to keep it off the concrete. Battery has been removed but otherwise that's it. Oh and it's super clean. All I will tend to do is have it serviced the moment I want to drive it next.
