it cost around $200 and c/w water proof materials all around.

I park my car inside and its safe

I start up my car every week and let it run for 15 to 30 minutes.
of course I fill up the tank.

I bought storage insurance $15/month

hope this help you.
I drive a M but I would think it is the same for all BMW. According to manual, one should not let the engine warm up. I am interested to know also as this is my first winter.
