Depends on how long you want to store it really.
I store my MX5 in a heated garage each winter and the only things I've ever done are:
1. Inflate tyres to approx 50psi to avoid flatspots and occasionally change it's resting position in the garage.
2. Choc wheels & leave handbrake off.
3. Connect to a battery conditioner (CTEK recommended).
4. Cover with an internal dust cover.

Ignore item 4 then or maybe use a good waterproof, breathable outdoor cover
