    OP did you not understand post 5?
    After 3 winter months the car battery will be dead and the car will not start.

    Most if not all long stay airport parking places will have assistance to help you if the car won't start.

    Not sure if the op wants to leave the car for a 3 month stay or park daily for 3 months.

    I hadn't considered that daily parking might be an option, although post #9 does refer to long term parking. Perhaps a bit of clarity from the OP on what they want and why the suggested alternatives are no good might be helpful.

    I think little more info is needed to answer more clearly.
    If it's for full 3 months parking then I think that is bit silly. You can just leave the car at home and go to Heathrow by taxi/bus/train/friend etc.

    And if it's to use the Heathrow parking for 3 months then that's different story.
    Plenty of parking companies in and around Heathrow.

    Can't someone drive you too the airport and look after your car back home for a price? Turn it on once a week and clean any grossness that appears.

    I'm in the same boat, I want to leave my car somewhere safe while away, so want to find the cheapest place to leave car at Heathrow for two weeks?
    Nothing has been fixed since 2008, it was just pushed into the future
