Car not starting

Volkswagen Jetta 2007 2.5 Wolfsburg edition 189000 miles
The car has been sitting for 8 months bought it for a very good price. I have good fuel pressure 35 , I have fire to all the coils ,plugs look fine, all fuses look good, but nothing just turns over seems like no fire or fuel. What should I do next? Also it had a po721 service code which I knew about I need to replace the output shaft speed sensor. No other codes
