Default Driving the S2 again after storing

My s2k had been in my garage for over about 6-8 months now, just wondering if theres anything i should do when i start driving it again, such as oil change? stuff like that. also, during this 6-8 month. i turn my car on sometime just let it run for about 30 mins(not if this matters or not). thanks for the help.

When I put mine away for the winter, once a month I start it up.

But when it comes time to get it back out, check the fluids and tire pressures for sure.

Plus it wouldnt hurt to check the antifreeze and brake fluid levels either just to be safe.

Plus, check the tirees themselves for signs of dry rotting, which you shouldnt have to worry about after only 6 months, but its just a safety precaution. Other than that
you should be straight.
