Scottish sightings

what are the differences between 23 and 24? In terms of bongs? Is it lane departure sort of stuff?

The 2024 has the ADAS advanced driver stuff. I think you can tell the difference by looking at the rear view mirror housing ( although may be wrong). I think there is also a three pin socket in the boot too. Not sure what else though.

Three pin socket could be useful. Driver aids, depends what you’re doing with you vehicle. My Volvo has technology above and beyond, but can be switched on/off - options selected etc. Not sure I want all that on my Grenadier. Unless you can switch it off, and it stays off until you switch it back on.

Our American cousins seem to moan about having to switch off the stuff they don’t want every trip. Is this a market, local, thing? Or standard? I await your thoughts when you get yours!

Honestly having to switch off the start/stop every journey is bad enough!

Live where I do…. The battery is rarely charged enough for this to work (seems not to work under 70%). I have to agree that there appears to be a short, but noticeable, delay in the re start. Annoying. Volvo is quick enough to make beggar all difference.

Today, 2:30ish, Tyndrum, Britannia Blue (?) heading north. Glad I’m not the only Britannia Blue driver

An Inky Black Grenadier at the Westhill shopping centre lunchtime today that I’ve not seen before. They are popping up thick and fast now!

I got a wave from a guy in a NEW defender yesterday

Quite common to get a wave from old ones (real ones) but this is the first time I’ve had an acknowledgement from an L663.

Lol - I got a thumbs up from a Suzuki Jimny last week! Most new Defender drivers I encounter have their blinkers on - not looking, not looking...

Scottish Grenadiers - October Coffee meets

Hi All, Just to draw a couple of threads together.... I'm on the mainland for a couple of weeks in October; and I'm hoping to meet some of you guys whilst I'm there. Earlier this year four of us gathered at the Blair Drummond Smiddy farm shop, it's good to meet when the opportunity arises. 1...
