Lars that´s the best option by far Smiley

Dantas - my wife requested the car, so she will get it - Happy wife, easier life. But this is independent of the family car. I think a G-Class is a great car in the stable, not sure if it is a family driver. Two different decisions. 

Keep it one. Would save you a lot of money. If you like the G class, get one and make your wife happy. It is also a very good family car (which I can confirm after two trips in a G class in the US).

Realistically the G will not be available for the next 2 years. So I see the G in 2 years in the stable for my wife. In 2 years I can think then about what the other or let's say - my car Smiley will be. And maybe, the G is so much better than the old one, that it really is good enough as a family weekender? Even I never made and always hated such long term car decisions, I guess in this case we just have to do it. If we and especially my wife ever gets a G it must be in 2 years with the new model. Long time until then!
