United Kingdom 2012 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Lux Santorini Black
New Owner priorities

Hiya All
Just bought a RRS 2012
currently trying to build my confidence in the vehicle .

so got the tracker sorted to keep insurance happy, am going to look for a good immobiliser INF
Booked in to have cambelt and health check at local 4x4 specialist next month

I noticed the underneath is quite rusty, so looking at getting the waxoyl Treatment
gonna cost £525 is this money wasted or looking after my investment.

still other thing to check just trying to prioritise ( No doubt will be on here for advice )

open to advice from more experienced owners...

I have the same list that needs doing to mine for the same reason as the OP - so I can relax and enjoy it.. I might even get to that list if other things didn't keep falling off Embarassed Laughing (Alternator being the latest failure!) 2014 BMW 530d Touring, 2006 BMW 650i, 2018 Mini Cooper S

Re the ARC pipes, would it help to coat with grease/copperslip or similar or maybe a rust inhibitor?
