Next week sometime allegedly. It was supposed to be last Tuesday but somebody panicked because we are sheep shearing tomorrow and apparently I don't need the distraction or so I'm told. Apparently thinking about more than one thing at once is against the rules?!?
Aye, nothing is going to get done on the farm for weeks, not with a long list of bits to bolt on and several fairly long comparison drives to complete.

Joking aside, I am sure you will love it.  When I bought my Gen 3 I did so as I didn’t much like the new shape, however, the Gen 4 is better in almost every respect, especially the engine with a lot more usable power and there is a fair bit more space in the back with the seats down or in your case, no seats.  I now even prefer the new shape, although I am sure the windscreen is smaller and it seems to be more upright.

Do not want to be a party pooper but I seem to have more power from my m16a than the gen4's when driving together with them on trips.
Even with my 3-400kg trailer.
Just my impression from the hills of norwegian mountain roads.
Compared to a m13 jimny with congested cats though the Gen4 will be a racecar.
But when we go on trips we all are well loaded with camping gear, and I might be travelling lighter than most and have a lower geared transfer case.

We thought that on our test drive it's a bit like a pill box. But yeah tracker, tow bar, waxoyl, bulkhead delete, roof bars. Aka commissioned for work should be done in a couple of days assuming that the weather holds for the waxoyl.

As for reversing under trees I might be lucky
