Stuff wot I learned today, having poked around a few other Grenadiers (a rare thing up here).

1. Both Queens red and Britannia blue are much, much nicer in the metal than in pics or on the configurator
2. The saddle leather is lovely, it’s the only thing I had on my wish list that I didn’t actually get on my Grenadier. Bugger.
3. Sorry chaps but the steel wheels still look better 😉
4. I want to change the driving lights
5. Grenadier owners are nice folk
1. I agree
2. I agree
3. Nope. I like the alloys :)
4. I agree
5. I agree

Wow! 80 % agreement - statistically an improbably small sample :)

Regarding driving lights, have you looked at these

Yes thanks I had seen them but I want to keep the oem look so will get a set of the brackets from the forum shop and a set of lights to fit. Cheers 👍

@BVT, I'd be interested to hear what you select. I like the apparent brightness of the Lazerlamps but I want a swap in replacement so I don't have to cut the grille

@Riversides has the forum brackets and ezelites (spelling?) - he seems pretty happy with them
Yes, I’d definitely recommend them. They are Exzeit branded and I purchased them via Amazon.com - full details of my install are in the auxiliary light thread. They retain exactly the same functionality as the stock lights in terms of the overhead aux button and switching on full beam. Brackets and lights cost just over £200 in total and they are extremely bright - many times better than stock. They also come with both clear and yellow covers so the choice is yours. I’m very happy with them and even happier with the cost!

Fantastic, a trialmaster? Whats the spec?
It was one of their pre-configures. My non-negotiables were safari windows, heated seats, all the switches and not an N1 for speed camera reasons. Magic Mushroom was my No1 but like most of the colours.

So Petrol TM, in Sela Green, safari windows, black leather, smooth pack, towball and the ugly-kid-windows. Hoping to blag some of the rubber floor mats. I really fancied the saddle leather, but no joy. Ineos told me it comes from Eissman in German, so a project for next year.

Long list of extras already being planned. Summer tyres arrived earlier this week. Cheers, J
