Grenadier Nights

[CountyV8]

To be honest the people in the meeting yesterday included the likes of Mark Tennant and Gary Pearson so it was a real good insight into the workings and whats going on.

So what is "going on"

 

[Halliwell Jones Chester]

Million dollar question then - are they confident on the revised delivery estimates ( mine Feb March for Fieldmaster ordered May 19th), and will they be honoring the price on the order document?

Lots of discussion and questions from us Agents and the answers are they're confident with the new delivery dates. I also asked Mark if we could have more regular updated videos regardles of whether it's good or bad news. People just want to know what's happening, he did say that he is going to be trying to do more of these going forward.

@Halliwell Jones Chester Any update as to contracts?

They are currently running tests in the portal to make sure the process from contract to delivery flows right so shouldn’t too far off now.

he did say that he is going to be trying to do more of these going forward.

He said that in the video of 5th August & again on 6th October...

And you’ve asked for weekly or fortnightly updates so I asked him if he can do this for everyone. I put across points you all have to the commercial director of INEOS Automotive yesterday, I can’t really do much more than that. I explained everyone’s frustrations regarding lack of communication and hopefully it’s all taken on board. We will just have to wait and see what happens.

Hope it’s all going well and you are now heading off for an early night after such as busy day

Thanks for the updates Steve, everyone is appreciative of the info you can give without getting yourself in hot water.

Thanks for the feedback and effort you're putting into this Stephen, I know that there can be a great deal of nit-pickery on here sprinkled with a bit of the Spanish Inquisition, it is an enthusiasts forum after all and thats to be expected within reason

Right now I'm just trying to remind myself how communicative and inclusive during the design and testing process INEOS have been. Especially when you contra them to the main stream automotive producers LR, BMW, Ford et al. Your forthright attitude to the questions of the forum members and presenting these comments and concerns to INEOS directly is greatly appreciated. I've tried several times and have been more or less stonewalled to date, that doesn't mean I'll stop though...

On a side note I do miss the pub, it was a great place to hang out when I lived in London.

Stu.

The million dollar question, how was the Wellington?

The Wellington was perfect as where the Scallops to start and the Sticky toffee pudding for desert! Numerous pints of Peroni went down well too!

And no, I am not jealous at all.

Gary Pearson does not seem to have been as customer facing as say Greg Clark, Justin Hocevar, Tim Abbot, or Klaus Hartmann but I did find this oldish interview for "trade":

Five minutes with… Gary Pearson, Head of Sales & Marketing UK, MENA at INEOS Automotive

What type of customer is the INEOS Grenadier 4X4 aimed at? The Grenadier is designed to be a dependable and capable workhorse. It’s specifically aimed at people who need a hard-working off-road vehicle for work or play, and will appeal…
