JL Sport 2019 estimated costs of repairs

[CasperPL]

Hello again group.

As you might know from my previous topic I am currently searching for a car. I just managed to find a JL model from 2019 used by the travel company. From the report provided by them the car has several issues: 

1- Replace wiper blade 2- Replace RHS and LHS VVL seal 3- Replace battery 4- Replace spark Plug 5- Replace brake fluid flush 6- Replace steering gear box 7- Tyre calibration 8- Hand break adjustment 7- ESP-PCM-HVAC-IPC Software updates 8- Replace coolant flush 9- Replace engine oil, rear oil seal, front oil seal 10- Replace sump releasing 11- Replace air make up hose 12- Replace time cover gasket 13- Replace PLIG seal 14- Replace cover sensor seal 15- Replace LHS and RHS valve gasket cover and nut bolt oil assembly

Can you roughly estimate the costs of the repairs and maybe recommend a garage which can take care of it for a reasonable price? 
I still haven't purchased the car, as I am trying to estimate the value.

The numbers 2, 6, 9.2, 9.3 and 15 need research on whether JL has a known issue or maintenance needed after a certain km.

If not, I will stay away from such a car, simply because it points to excessive past abuse, either by driving badly or skipping maintenance. Both ways it will soon backfire on you. 

Rest all are pretty basic maintenance and consumable items.

Having recently done numbers 2, 9, 12 on a 2019 sport that had full agency service history, list price for this work alone is about 8000aed but we got it for 6k. 

batteries for main and auxiliary is about 1500 at agency ( but if they die within 7months like ours did there is guarantee)

in the case of vvl seals ours leaked again within one month of replacement but this was handled under warranty

Steering gearbox or Steering Rack or Rack & Pinion is expensive. I'll copy-paste original Mopar parts in US$, it might be slightly cheaper in the UAE, but for American cars not so much price difference:

6. Steering gearbox: US$ 364

3. Main Battery $291 + Aux Battery $162

 

15. The gasket covers are cheap as they are gaskets, but the labour to replace them might go between 300-500 dirhams depending on garage:
