Australasia Grenadier Delivery & Wait Times in Australia.

[TheDocAUS]

Someone else’s car… haha mine was optioned with safari windows .
How’d ya go yesterday getting what you needed?
Ric told me he was out on holiday.

Ric has a family emergency.

Yes everything was done and the final few niggles fixed.

 

[Snipewench]

Not my car either. Delivery in a week (awaiting Ric to return), so am nervous yet thrilled, and not a bit impatient to continue waiting...

Based on that pic, they must be getting close to finishing the demo 4WD track. Ric showed me the waterfall and water crossing part.

There was another Magic Mushroom out the back with Molle Panel and diesel tank fitted.

Still more work to do on the track, more concrete needs to be laid and boulders placed. I asked when would it be finished, they did not know.

I picked it up! The panel with the diesel tank is mine. So very excited! @Snipewench I felt the same anxieties yesterday before taking delivery. Today they have melted away. Well worth the wait.

Gee, I'm so torn over whether to just bite the proverbial bullet (hopefully moly-coated copper jacketed with a good meplat shape and boat tail angles for ease of inflight dynamics, but I digress...) and stump up the cash for the exterior molle panel(s) and 30L diesel tank. I'm curious to how much the rear view is compromised by the tank out there.

Lovely colour - my preference was the Scottish White, but Eric's (the US Eric) Magic Mushroom with the black roof, looks _amazing_ too... it could almost be called Desert Tan.

I'm getting a Donny Grey though. Was sold on it when I saw it in the flesh!

View is impeded on the passenger's side, but almost no loss on driver's side - when you look back over your shoulder.

Minimal loss of vision on either side, using side mirrors.

XHQ delivered a Donny Grey yesterday after I left.

I looked closely at your tank install, as you were suppose to stay away from the workshop. I would sneak a look at what Neil was doing and then go and work out what the details by looking at your car. I need to be able to instal and uninstall the panels and tanks.

Seems like an easy on off with a socket wrench, eh?

Lower bolts on the utility belt are, more complicated on the grab handle. Much easier with no roofrack.

Your motor is famous

This was one of my favorite threads to follow.

We need some Aussies who have placed orders to restart it !

Good times

At the Sydney 4WD Adventure show last weekend, there was a big increase in brand awareness for the INEOS Grenadier.

Alex (Purnell Adventure) noticed a big increase from last year. Many people visited the INEOS stand. Most of them had seen the Ronny Dahl and other Grenadier videos on YouTube.

Hey all, I am new to 4x4 scene and towing, which is what we plan to do down the track with the IG. Only put in an order couple of weeks back (no build slot) but with the news and email from Ineos this morning on production freeze.......it looks like there are gonna be delays. I will keep dreaming for now .
