  • I take spin in the 2023 Ineos Grenadier for he first time. Its a wonderful piece of kit and a testament to what feels like quality engineering.

    Basically an affordable G-Wagon for middle class folk with Defender-esque vibes 😎
    Nice to see your take on it as an LR guy yourself.

      Agree, that was my inpressiong when I went for a test drive, especially how doors closed and built tough. I had one configured for 110K roughly but I backed out..maybe I wait for the next gen

      @@Fedgery007 - except all the mechanical engineering was done by Magna who build the G Wagon for Mercedes and a bunch of components eg the ladder chassis are from the same suppliers. Apart from that it has nothing to do with the G wagon it’s true.

      Make sure you drive one for a decent amount of time before committing. On right hand drive models (I'm UK based), there's a hump on the floor in the driver's footwell. Forces you to sit at an angle, which kills your lower back after a while. Brilliant vehicle, but this is a deal breaker for lots of people.

      Grenadiers will start flooding the used car market after the warranty expires. European vehicles are very expensive to service and repair.

    Yep. 👍. I like it. (Diesel for me ) It’s what the actual Defender should have been of sorts…possibly the next years model may have any bugs/kinks worked out - if any needed. 😬

    Well done.
    I like the aesthetic, but then again, I’m a Land Rover guy.
    I’d be curious to hear a 6-month or 12-month review to see if the ergonomics and the craftsmanship is appealing after “the honeymoon.”
    Cheers!

    Yes really a 4x4 with solid axels, thus the understeer but ideally a multiuse vehicle for farm or country estate use. Only thing they didn't match/consider from LR/RR days is use as dog carrier! The split rear door favors the crowded city where there's little room between cars to lower a gate. I've owned LR 88, 110 Defender and multiple 2-door RR's (gray market in US at the time) and having now test driving the Inios, think it would be appropriate for our farm. Now just a matter of winning the Lotto and convincing my wife! Cheers for a worthy review

    It is the old thing … the one person who was most opposed to me marrying my present wife was my previous wife (who left me).Those folk who are most vociferous about the Grenadier (or the new Defender) are old Defender die hards. Old Defenders are no longer made (for a variety of reasons). Time to move on.

    I had one configured and went for a test drive last month. To be honest, I like everything about it except the fact that the steering wheel does not center and I know it would take some time to get used to it, but that was a no-go for me. I almost ended up on the sidewalk.

    • @rostamr4096
      @rostamr4096 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      No , I believe it has nothing to do with the alignment, it is just design like that. You have to actively recenter the wheels after turning..which is very odd@@yourchava

    Design-wise it kind of resembles the old school Defender, but in a sort of conceived by 2 very close cousins sort of way. Oh and raised white letter tires always has and always will be a sin!

    Hey, I can’t find our recent message exchange, sorry to be off topic. Was wondering - any thoughts on purchasing a warranty on a used 2013 Range Rover? 120k miles. Can you even get one? If you can, is there a go-to company?

      @@AddictedMotors Well, hardly. Jaguar Land Rover sell about 400,000 cars a year. Ineos will sell about fourteen, and ten of them will be returned to address defects. JLR have loads of dealerships and support. Ineos will depend on third party dealerships who will smell the desparation of a company trying not to have its image trashed.
      Ineos is a rich man's vanity project, except that he is nowhere rich as Elon.
