It’s called the Professional, and it’s 100% about practicality – especially when you compare it to the luxury G-Class wagons. We love the massive payload, something only Iveco’s Daily could compare with for sheer numbers. It’s very expensive as well… probably pushing it beyond the realms of your average buyer. It’s a 100% serious 4X4 though, with locking diffs, live axles, barwork and other accessories straight off the showroom floor.
