X pattern discs and staggered packer tyres are the latest mods I believe, not sure re date mind. I have standard discs and non staggered tyres and dont have any issues unless wet when you best leave it in the shed.
Am sure some more knowledgable bod will be along shortly.

2009 had quite a few upgrades did it not? Been a while since I’ve looked into them.

Yes new shape hopper and interactive depth control.
6m would be good but on our land we'd need a bigger tractor so stick with 4m

Your 79 will handle a 6m no problem, used to pull a 6m horsch with it and on very steep ground too6m would be good but on our land we'd need a bigger tractor so stick with 4m
It wouldn't be on the 79 all the time we've a 75 now as well and if we really needed to the 6155r at a push so 4m only . I'm told horsch are a lot easier to pull as well

Interactive depth control is a must imo once you get used to it!

Always worth giving John a ring at Cambridge Farm Machinery, They are are doing these drills all the time and what he doesn't know is not worth knowing, he might have a drill he could offer you or I always find he is happy to tell you all the pro's and con's even if he does not get a deal.
I am also looking for a 4m vaderstad myself if anyone has one, year between 2000 and 2003

We've a good local dealer and the manager used to be a vaderstad man but I like to get actual user opinions as well not just sales jargon.
There was a clean 4m advertised on here a couple of weeks back that I called the guy about bit it was a straight axle and we'd want a staggered
This. John Noble is a very straight guy to deal with too.
