Mine has sat for 7.5 weeks before without issue.
It's never been on a charger and never will. The car is not contactable on InControl so has gone to full sleep mode.

NC500, very nice. We were hoping for another Swiss, Germany, the ring, etc trip this summer but that looks highly unlikely. Sad times but everyone needs to follow the advice of your governments and stay safe.

Also meant to say, if your car is not to be used any time soon, consider putting it on Sorn. Only full months are refunded so must be done before end of the month. Do not however cancel your insurance.

I did an Alpine tour last june with my son. Lots of passes were still closed so we aim to do an 'encore' and wanted to do it end of june.
This might still be feasable I think. We did not make any reservations, but what I did was email all hotels and B&B's that we want to
go (back) to, telling them we hope they are ok and we intend to come soon. Many of them are now closed for two months and need
to stay closed for maybe a long time more. They need to see some business on the horizon.... We did get really kind responses and
a lot of real info on the local situation. :(

Seems like Italy is at least 5x worse then made public. They don't count in the Chinese that died there sofar. There are roughly 250.000
in Northern Italy, working in the posh leather industry now owned by Chinese firms.

I had to go do a critical shop in mine... We were genuinely low on provisions.
Contrary to popular belief, you can fit quite a lot of shopping in the boot on a vert! πŸ˜‰

I’ll be using mine to food shop too when we need to, sadly we have enough food for at least 3 or 4 days.

Had no issues seeing anything ahead, the only thing that I would look out for is the pot holes, apart from that the trip will last long in the memory.

Great photos of the jag that one can look back on in years to come with the family.

Nice....

I want to do that since I was 16yrs old. I then had a moped based on a German motorbike [ Zundapp ], 50cc only.
I wanted to go there by ferry and then camp. Until I started working out the cost of the trip. Too expensive..

Can you see far enough ahead, seated this low ? Before the crises started I planned to go to the south to visit a cousin
and some elderly friends. Decided to take the F-Pace since the hedges and trunk roads are less then convenient
sitting in an F-Type..

Mine is getting out a couple of times a week. I need to pop into the office to check servers at least once a week and then there is the essential supplies thing.
