Hi, I am about to go abroad for two/three years. I have a much loved Land Rover 110 that I want to store for two to three years offroad. It uses dual fuel, petrol and LPG. Any ideas of what preparation is neccessary? I have put extra air in tyres and disconnected the battery and disenaged the handbrake and chocked the tyres. I am not sure what else is neccesary. Does the engine need to be started from time to time? Ane help or suggestions would be much appreciated. John.

The engine should be run, if you have someone to do that for you, the tyres will not survive over that time stood in one spot, best if the Landie is moved from time to time.. even rolled forward out of the garage and reversed back in.
