Still waiting for my first Grenadier encounter of the third kind on the road, and I discount one I saw at 100 m from my dealer and two I saw In Hambach when visiting the factory.

Now in Romania, close to Hungarian border, almost 12000 km on the counter.

Had a lovely day with a lot of gravel and stones and a new noise ...

...that interests me! Where does it come from? What does it sound like?

If I knew ... I already crawled under my car to see if something was loose ...
You know those old cars, Land Rovers and other, where when on a bad road everything is squeaking? If have sound like that since this afternoon.

3000km maiden voyage and only three other Grenadiers spotted in the wild.

Ski tube long term car park.
Random side street in Manly, Sydney.
Heading south on the Pacific Motorway near Byron Bay.

I guess most Aussie ones have gone bush.

Saw a pale blue Fieldmaster (?) today in the car park of Sandy Park Stadium for the rugby match between Exeter Chiefs and Cornish Pirates. I don't yet have mine, and this was the first one my wife has seen in the flesh. She hated it 🤣. Oh well.

Clearly the wife will have to go.

Well you're going to have to make an awful decision shortly. Me I'd stick with the vehicle

Saw a MM on the 18th around 7pm going north into Munich on A95 while I was heading in the other direction. My first encounter driving a Grenadier myself.

Yay saw my second one in the wild this week! There are now 3 in and around Amersham UK. Third one possibly a Fieldmaster. So that makes 2 Fieldmasters and one Utility I think. Actually managed a convoy with one of them up the hill to Beaconsfield.

That's how small the world is. I was in Bekonscot once. That was really nice. But the streets were far too narrow for a Grenadier. ;)

Maybe I should take my model Grenadier and just place it in one of the Bekonscot streets and see how long it takes someone to notice.

That would be worth a try. But you could actually put it there on the street and post the photo of the month here.

I see a Grenadier in the wild everyday .

But it's my own one.

Have never seen another one yet.

Ohh yes! Will see if I can do that. Some of the model buildings are supposed to be real shops in Beaconsfield. So perhaps I get the model G in front the model shop and then a photo of the real G in front of the real shop.

I see a plan forming...

And another yesterday. That makes 4 in my town. A silver possibly trailmaster (well it has a snorkel) parked outside the Record Shop. Couldn't see anyone to wave at.
