Looking good
Very nice! Thanks for pics. What is that hose that goes behind seat (looks like it is an interior cab exhaust or intake).
Like the better seals on lids and real window latches. So much alike to my old beast in layout, except my hydraulic oil reservoir is in engine bay. What is that TThomson box in engine bay for?
Also, all the sound dampening obviously makes for a quieter ride...I couldn't listen to radio in mine, unless I had it cracking loud (even after sound dampening it further).
And something I've noticed in newer minis is how beefy the blade supports are...mine are just two small box tubes. No flex in yours...plus, they've mounted the ram back and higher than mine...I've run into issues rubbing ram shroud off mine, and snapping off bolts holding it on as it sits too low.
And you have a top roller, which likely extends life of tracks and drive motors.
Just not a fan of all the electronics they stick in them nowadays, although certainly more secure with a pin pad.
Looks very comfortable...and you got the floor all muddy already! LOL
I know, it is an excavator and all, but I treat mine like a car...couldn't afford a new beast.

Nice looking rig! What is the numbered keypad on the dash for? A newbie here! 
Nothing like a new machine.
Love the machine but not impressed by all the electronics.
You should start a new thread Nick if you want better comments on other machines.
Here in AUS we have U25 and i think U20 is grey import i think.

It's a security pad. Need a code to start the machine.
