Default Starting a car after a year

Well, we'll be bringing the XE home to live in our shed instead of a friends shed next weekend. Problem is that it hasn't been started in over a year.
What is recommended before starting a car that hasn't been started in a while?
We (my brother and I) were planning on changing the oil, coolant and probably petrol before attempting to start it. Anything else we should worry about beforehand?

Also, the car hasn't been moved in that time period as well. Should we worry about the diff and transmission oils as well?
