Hi guys I am a new member and a new proud owner of a 2007 bentley continental gtc with 31000 fish. I've bought this for a summer toy, obviously it's winter. Lol. I me going to store the car in my central heated garage with dehumidifier. I've got myself the bentley trickle charger and a storage breathable cover. I was wondering if I should do any more to the car I.e lower the suspension etc and maybe 4 wheel sledges to stop flat spots on the tyres, any advice greatfully welcome.

Only recommendation I would have would be to have the car lifted, or the wheels taken off. Other than that you should be fine.

Hello rangrov. You might entertain starting the engine at least once a month and let it come up to operating temperature, and turn on the heater and A/C to circulate the H2O and Freon. The A/C seals can leak Freon when not keeping compressor clutch assembly rotating on the seals because of belt tension. The seals can get flat spots when stored for extended periods of time and cause the Freon to leak. If you are concerned about flat spots mark the tires and move them 180 while the engine is coming up to temp. You might also consider adding a fuel additive for moisture accumulation (bad fuel).

Many thanks guys. I will take your advice

Yes, add Stabil or something like that to the gasoline and then drive the car for about 20 miles to be sure it gets into the lines.

What winter storage??

Agreed, the MOST FUN i ever had driving the Bentley was in the snow.

Hi guys the reason I am storing it over winter is two reasons, one I've bought the gtc for a summer fun car with a view to keep it for a long time. Second I have a 2 year old V8 Toyota Land Cruiser which to me is the ultimate winter vehicle. So this is why I don't need the Bentley in the ****ty months.lol. Thanks for you advice.

No worries, we understand. The Land Cruiser is a great winter vehicle!
