Most of us do not have any extra rustproofing and rely on the factory coatings (and the warranty) for protection.
It has been pointed out before that unless an after market protection treatment is carried out so as not to block any drains etc. and so that it fully maintains the integrity of the Land Rover anti-corrosion system then it will cause more harm than good.
If you are operating in an unusually highly corrosive environment then it may be wise to consult your dealer.
The photos you refer to belong to member "PauloAmore "
I don't recall any posts from him regarding rust but some one else may.
Why don't you PM him ?
I hope this helps

Certainly makes sense to offload it before the warranty expires. That'll mean a huge glut of secondhand three year old RRS's up for sale next year then! Confused MY12 SDV6 HSE Sumatra/Ebony/Piano/Sidesteps/Privacy/Overfinch Olympus/JLR DRLs

Sportman had to wait ages for his RRSport, I doubt if he is thinking of getting rid of it just yet. Confused Arctic Frost TDV6 SE. Aspen Leather, Cherry Wood, Privacy Glass, PTI, Tow Pack, Mudflaps, Tasmods, a new Fuelflap, a RRSport.co.uk umbrella in the boot & a RRSport.co.uk sticker on the rear glass.
