So looking for advice, i have moved my new M to my garage and purchased a humidity / temp sensor.
Its reading around 60-75 humidity and around 10 degree's in the garage.
Anyone can simplify the best way i can store the car long term, i am considering a airflow chamber as the car will only be used afew months a year, but they are like £450.
Hi looney, I have a couple of air chambers, one for my M C and one for my beach buggy, they are excellent for garages that are not that dry. Mine has steel roof sheets that condensate on those days where you get big temperature changes between night and day temps. The roof can be dripping wet but the car is bone dry in the chamber.
They run a couple of fans that just move air through the chamber and over the vehicle so the moisture cant form. One issue I suspect is that they can dry stuff out too much on occasion as I have noticed sticky hand brake and dry contacts on ignition switch if not used for long periods. Speak to Rob at airflow uk in oxfordshire ,great help and customer service, chambers come with trickle battery chargers for the vehicle, set up is 45 mins . Have just replaced my original chamber which lasted aprox 14 years and would have kept going. All spare parts are available overnight .
Best thing you can do for your vehicle if you dont have a weatherproof and heated integral garage.
