Should I be concerned?

Took my car in for front wheel balancing and of course I couldnt help not taking a look behind the wheels of my 2014 e4d.
Of course there is some rust here and there but do your more experienced eyes detect anything that screams attention?

(apologies for the rotated images - not sure why they turn out like this when uploading)

Latvia 2008 Freelander 2 TD4 S Manual Santorini Black

Personally i wouldn' t lose sleep over this, there seems to be no rust on car itself, only shock absorber, other suspension parts and a little bit on subframe. But i can't stop repeating this - once there is rust, it is very expensive and time consuming to get rid of it, so the best and cheapest thing for you to do would be to get a proper undercoating while there is still very little rust. ''Protective covers'' sprayed on rust make things much worse.

@Chigo - compared to a UK car of similar age there is very little rust on that car. Jules
