Regarding the car...I wouldn't worry too much, 7-8 months is about a normal winter storage for me. Top off with fresh fuel, get the battery charged (or replaced if necessary) then do a few miles, check oil and change if you think. Rubber on road is the key point. .

Again, welcome back...and hope all's well.
Long story short, cancer has claimed another innocent and by far the wrong person again. Someone blood related, single mom of two, I've volunteered to be the one who made it easy(er) for her. Long journey, learnt a lot about life man.

Thanks for asking, and cheers for the tips. That's what my mate said also here.. similar to a season storage so nothing to worry too much. Fingers crossed!

So sorry to hear that someone close was lost. We're all a big family here, so yes, we really do care. Cars are great and Boxster's are even greater ( ) but we all know what really matters in life and that is the people that we love.

Good to hear from you and wish you the best going forward.
