It depends on how long you are looking at, as there are preparations you can do.

You have done the right thing though by disconnecting the battery, it may be an idea to get a trickle charger.

Mine can be left for a couple of months, still always starts on the button.

In the 7 months my saff was in dick turpins bodyshop I only started the car up twice. Both times I took the coil lead off to get oil to the top of the engine.
