Default Parking on a hill... Does it matter?

I just got an extra parking space for one of the new vehicles and will be leaving an xj40 on an incline. Does it make any difference when you start it while parked on an incline? Itīs not on street so I can roll the car back in neutral and start it on a flat street if thatīs better for it.

Mine's been parked on a hill for more than 15 years! The only problem I've noticed is you can't measure the oil level propperly. These Jags need the road to be completely flat.
