Having to STORE your car inside is nothing out of the ordinary.
I asked my broker what this meant and he said that I had to put the
car in a locked garage when I was not using is for an extended period.
With me the understood that this is a CAR and so it should be driven
for enjoyment. In the past year or so I have had several occasions
in which I had my car outside at my house for 4 or 5 weeks...

And how about when you take your car to an event (like SCS next
week)? They can't expect you to be able to park it inside at
every single location that you visit.

Have a look at <http://www.cartainer.nl> it's in Dutch only,
but you'll get an idea on how I've got my car stored,
it's about 2 miles from my house, 5 minutes on a bike, 20 by foot.

Good luck,
