May be eight or so, hard to count.

But if they are eight, than that's about one per one million km².

Would like to know which version they are.

Are these the first deliveries? Who’s getting them? Will you please strap on a go-pro and give a real review!?

No those might still be prototypes

 

[DCPU]

It's sort of interesting that they have no PTO designation.

So are they still 2 or maybe 3?

 

[emax]

They already have the black recovery brackets. :-(

I wonder how many of these will make it to QLD. Who knows, we may finally get to see one up here in the north in 6 months or so

 

[DCPU]

It'll be your luck that they'll be doing a clockwise tour starting Melbourne.

Looks like they're not happy about it either.

They have the proper flip number plates on winch

They are most likely the demo fleet so they will be full production versions.
Looking at the pictures the ones with the bull bars, raised air intake, steel wheels and roof racks are probably Trialmaster versions
The ones with the alloys and no bar work are probably Fieldmaster.
Probably a base model and a Utility in there as well.
They have been talking about the demo units arriving in November so 4-6 weeks on a boat makes sense.
Interesting that they already have all the "dealer fitted" accessories on them.

Doesn't look straight to me.

Well it certainly doesn't look gay.

I believe I've heard start of production is end of October. These will still be pt02 or ls "launch series"

Start of customer cars is end of October. Dealer demos are not for sale so can't be customer cars. Initially at least. Like all demo's they may eventually sell them off as second hand.

I think you should be praising the workers and management of Ineos and thanking the shipping company. Not sure any mythical deities or cloud based locations were involved

Hopefully you're joking rather than intolerant.

Big Bang Theory. Sheldon's go to reply if anyone mentions religion.
Not meant to offend.
I am not religious but have many friends from all different religions who are.
pretty comfortable with the theory that there was no divine intervention on getting some 4wds on a boat though.
If there is a god she was probably busy doing more important work.
