I am sending my 98 e300 turbodiesel across the pond to Europe to my father and wanted information on exactly what would be the proper way to store the car while its not being driven. The car will probably be driven one month out of the year and the rest of the time locked up in a garage. What do I do gentleman?? Put it on lifts to save the tires?? have someone start it once a month? what about the battery??? and potential rodent problems??? fuel issues???? It has 98,000 miles and is in beautiful condition. I am happy that this car will never see another day of snow or salt in its life, just a few rays from the mediterranean sun. I had an 81 300D for the past 11 years there but have decided to get something more modern.
