I think it will also be fair to see a picture of this car once it arrives. It's still an unsigned offer until then imo (unless he as provided other proof directly). Kudos to OP for delivering on his promise! Makes me want to move to Canada now....

Yes of course a picture will come! On a related note, I used the funds to purchase some N95 masks that were donated to the local hospitals here.

The whole bagged milk is more of an East-coast Canadian thing. Out here in the west, we use cartons and jugs, which I'm sure are typical in the US as well! Maybe @CClement can vouch too

The RRP of the G including delivery/ registration/ tax etc came to £112,850 and we got it for £105,000. I was happy with this. :-)

Excellent deal. Hopefully, your car comes through soon. The G350d is supposed to be the best diesel G class yet.

I was curious too. Here's what I found...

"Consider the billions of plastic jugs, paper cartons, and glass bottles needed to house milk each year. Now consider a vessel that takes up a fraction of the space and is, undeniably, more environmentally sound. It can be a strange sight for the unfamiliar, and yet it makes so much sense: bagged milk."

"
The same shift in milk vessel was happening north of the border. In 1967, DuPont introduced plastic bags that could be injected with milk. But its popularity in Canada would skyrocket in 1970 for one reason: the country’s conversion from imperial to the metric system. Jug and carton manufacturers—along with most of Canada’s manufacturing industries—faced challenges in converting to the new system. By comparison, plastic bags were easy to modify, and the country’s quick adoption of the metric system helped spur bagged milk’s popularity, and it soon became the market leader."
