Hello All - Freelander 2 purchased, not just for xmas...

Happy New Year (day) to you all!
I have just purchased a 2013 Freelander 2 Black & White and am looking forward to running it.
The car at just a tad over 100k has pretty much full main dealer history with the last couple by LR "specialists".
I added a new gearstick knob and changed the steering wheel to leather as the existing ones seemd to have been operated by Edward Scissor hands.
The car had a set of 19" rims with Pirelli Scorpions on it and as part of the deal the original 17" rims came with it.
As we live in a pretty rural are with a fair bit of snow , mud, gravel all on steep slopes, I have put a set of BF Goodrich Trail Terrains on the original rims and will use those for winter.
I have also just bought a JLR SDD set up with an eye to initially rectifying the "only one key" issue I am stressing over.
So I will be continuing to research the forum to help me achieve that inital goal as it seems a bit of a mindfield to succesfully achieve.
Any advice appreciated!

I have also bought a big tub of snowfoam as the car is the metallic Santorini Black version...

Thanks for the maintenance hint, I will certainly be looking at this in the near future (hopefully when it warms up a bit!)
