Sir James. You ditch the last part of the name for a Knight or Baronet typically, but is this typical

I was absolutely lambasted once by a secretary for a rear admiral for not addressing ‘Sir’ correctly, the 23 year old boy still remembers.
Yes sir, we definitely remember those times in our lives like that and I have had several of those myself!! Imprinted in your mind forever. I may sound like the absolute perfect example of a human being on these threads/posts, but I am FAR from it!! Shhhh don’t tell the other members/readers!!
No, just the Merchant navy, we did a few things with the Royal Navy over the years.Yes sir, we definitely remember those times in our lives like that and I have had several of those myself!!

Btw, did you serve in the military or was this a civilian encounter? I only ask as I served many years in the Army and I never got close to meeting someone like a Rear Admiral, would have been like a General ranking for me in the Army. That’s too highfalutin for little pawns like myself.
Service manual?
I would thank him for having the patience and using the resources to bring this project to life. When I think, say four years ago, when the only choice for a cool off-roader was to fork over $100k for a restored Defender, I shudder. Thank you, Sir Jim.
Probably not the time to apply such subtle pressure. I propose waiting unit the seat issues are solved and they start producing again.
I don’t think most of us are interested in creating negative publicity or hurting sales for Ineos. I want them to be stable, keep building the Grenadier (and spare parts), expand their dealer network AND open up the software and provide a service manual. No sir - keep your courts and your torts. Wide open spaces and wiley Old Man Trout for me. If a man has genuinely done me wrong, I’d much rather just whoop his ass - lawyers be damned.
I’ve never thought about it all bc I’d be heartbroken if somehow it spun out of control and Ineos folded at some point.

If that alone kills Ineos, it was already dead.I’ve never thought about it all bc I’d be heartbroken if somehow it spun out of control and Ineos folded at some point.
But I can understand how frustrations could lead to these thoughts — it’s an expensive car but the service doesn’t correlate.
I’ve owned 2 old LR Discos and still have a 2004 LR3, so I’m pretty used to dealing with frustration when it comes to cars. It can be annoying but the Grenadier is worth 100x the frustration of my LRs because it’s the car version of the love of my life lol
Where's my Jacket?!
Meh. Not really. 1)there’s no contract, only marketing generalities, 2)they’ll get around to it, 3)what they’ve delivered is pretty freakin’ awesome, 4)I’m having too much fun. But, that’s me. Party on.
The service manual and my bloody jacket!

I don't know what any of this means, but I believe, in principle, we agree.
