Put to bed for the winter.

1. Full tank of gas with stabilizer addititve
2. Tire pressure increased to 45 lbs
3. Car fully detailed and spotless
4. Rubber barrier between tire and concrete
5. Battery trickle charger engaged
6. Dust cover
7. Box of Kleenex to wipe away my tears.

 

even though mine is a DD, still makes ya kinda misty!

 

Yes it's that time of year.

Syd- I hope you meant 'battery tender' under your number 5. and not 'trickle charger'. The former are not suitable for long term unattended storage.

 

Swap out for a ctek if it's not!

Digging your car cover!

 

I bought this on ebay, to help with the separation anxiety. I was counting on Global Warming but it hasn't worked out yet.

 

Thanks for the heads up. I used the wrong term. Yes, its a Battery Tender Plus. (1.2 volts) Have used it for years.

 

Send it here to Atlanta. I'll keep the fluids flowing. No charge.

 

Love your cover.

 

 

Is the British car cover removeable? Can someone swipe it?

 

Me too, soon. I'm hoping to get until the first week of December before the salt and crap hits the streets. As soon as the salt and ice protection stones hit the streets the XKR goes under cover and is put to sleep until the spring. Damn... It's a good thing Canada has so much more to offer other than nice weather.

 

You mean like the colors of fall in Ottawa?

 

Curious about number 4, rubber barrier. I have always just parked it on the concrete, although I do move it around a bit during the winter.

Great car cover!!

 

Well, living in this part of Canada (Victoria, British Columbia) allows me to use the Jags all year long - no "winter" - meaning no snow, so no salt. and no rust. On the other hand, it is an active earthquake zone...

 

Syd, I agree with Ralph...GREAT cover! Would you mind sharing where you purchased it from?

Thank you! - Bob
