Help please!!

So today I bought an s5 vert and the previous owner told me he put 2 things of gas treatment into it but only ran enough gas to run out one its been sitting for more than six months I put a new battery into it and it turns and every once in a while it'll hesitate like its about to start but then just keep turning the idiot lights pretty much all come on even though the batter is good and it's got enough oil in coolent the lights are all still on he said it's really hard to start but once it does it just dies down again but I have yet to see it start if anyone could please help I would love to get this car going again! Thanks!

First thing I would do is pull the spark plugs, clean them if they're dirty, crank it and spray some starter fluid. If you get it started try to keep it around 2k rpm for a couple minutes to warm it up and get everything flowing.
