G350d
New owner, some starter questions

Hi, just purchased our first G-Wagon, a 2017 350d. Its a car mainly to replace my wifes RRS but will be used for dogs and general weekend duties, taking stuff to dump etc.

2 initial questions that Im sure there must be an answer for

1. Is there any difference in the boot space between this model and the facelifted 2018 model W463A (I think). As Im trying to purchase a fitted boot liner for it and cant see any decent ones for the older version. Lots of options for 2018 and newer version. Version of the newer ones for example

2. Whats the best option for adding cup holders? I bought a couple of these and still waiting on them coming but are there any better options to consider. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/294284077108

Thanks in advance

Hi Steve! I can quickly answer your questions. The boot space is very different between w463 and w463a so you'll need to look for the older version. There are a few threads on cup holders so I would suggest starting with a search. The one you linked to is one of the more popular models, not bad design if you can live with it blocking the vent.
