Who owns the jimny? If it belongs to the company, they can do what they like with it. If it's your's, then it's up to you, Personally i wouldn't be using my own vehicle for work anyway, unless self employed.As already stated get an old hilux for a work horse, plenty on flea-bay for much less than a landmaster conversion.
Its a company car hence it's not a rally spec Jimny with a 1.6 turbo. (Pity). The main objections I have raised so far revolves around the inability to through load fence rails and posts etc that and I would be mortified if it went off to be cut up and came back less sweet as a nut than it is now, that and I would have to work even harder to pay for the conversion. The jury is still out on this, big time.

That's a stupid amount of money for what is essentially a tiny pick-up bed conversion and wide wheels.
As already suggested, I'd use the money on a proper pick-up instead. Hilux, Amarok or such.
I agree with you about it being really quite expensive but so are its competitors, a new John Deere Gator isn't far off the same money with the cost of the donor. Im not sure it's an expense we as a family farm should be exposing ourselves to, it's a lot of sheep to sell just for a new toy.

Yes i would and indeed frequently do, but having a trailer on isn't always practical especially in winter when I don't drive on the land to avoid making mess.
