Ineos forced to shut down production on supplier issue

Media starting to break that production of the IG is going to be paused until 2025 due to financial troubles at one of its suppliers.

The UK dealers were just told and mine told me today but I didn't post anything until I saw it starting to appear in the media. I cant see behind the paywall but I wonder if this is recaro?

Given that most of us are misanthropes who were long ago disowned by our families, sounds like you’ll fit right in. Welcome to the lunacy. Now get out your foil hat and hit the trails.

I love the 4x4 knowledge of @AWo and his opinions. I agree with more than 90% of what he says.
I love my Grenadier, but indeed the car is very expensive.
I am not happy with the way INEOS treated us early customers: promises not kept, incompetent externalized customer support, my dealer is NOT a 4x4 dealer, etc.
And ... that seat problem is indeed dramatical for a young company like Ineos Automotive.
I am very curious what solution they will find!

Does anyone have an update on the factory?
Do we know if it’s still occupied by some staff maintaining it or it it completely vacant?
Is there still inventory there being shipped out from there? My dealer claims he is still getting cars to the end of the year.
Does anyone know if all the dealerships will be closing when they run out of cars to sell?
I am suppose to be buying one of these on Monday and they go out of business is my biggest concern
Do any of you feel that there will be parts made by someone to keep these running?

Repair/replacement parts don't come from the factory. If they aren't in stock in the US warehouse, they come from the parts warehouse in Belgium, if they aren't in stock there, they are being built/assembled at their subsequent supplier.

The statements made earlier indicated a factory shut down until the end of the year, with the presumption that ~3 months is enough time to figure out a solution moving forward.

Given that they just started selling in China and will also add Mexico before the end of the year would indicate there are no plans to permanently stop production or go out of business.

Dealers (in the US) have plenty of vehicles to sell between those that are on dealer lots, at the ports in the US and Belgium, as well as probably still a number at the factory awaiting shipment to the port.

Ok I thought we were done with this subject?

I certainly have the time and could keep posting about it, but I don’t think Stu_Barnes will like it!

This thread has taught me that many Americans love to gossip, argue and write extremely long letters to each other.
The rest of us just scribble one liners and enjoy driving and fiddling with our cars.

I’m glad Awo is contributing. The rest is fucking pedantic.

I’ve been to Arnold Palmer airport many times, and I can honestly say I’ve never once felt the urge to go on a 10 min diatribe about his purported junk size.

If you’re frightened, you should be.

Wow, Mr. Negativity actually being pro something. Shockingly it’s to put down anyone who disagrees with him/her.

Btw, do you even know the definition of “pedantic”? In the dictionary it literally has AWo’s picture in the reference part!!!! (I joke I joke I kid I kid)

Then you bring THE BIG BOSS into this?

Sounds like someone needs to get back on topic.

Do you ever shut the f**k up? I’ve known Irish chicks deep into a night of blow quieter than you.

I promise you, you don’t scare or threaten me not even a little bit!! If your mom came down to your room in the basement and see the words you have been typing, she may turn off your internet and then your world would crumble. I don’t want that for you, so PLEASE be nice…….

Btw, I seriously doubt you know any girls, Irish or other wise. I just call them like I see em.

@Zimm is cool. He’s like the grumpy uncle at Thanksgiving, but a really smart guy and knows his way around an engine. There’s room for everyone at the Grenny table. By definition, most of us are pretty eccentric- but I’m with @Tazzieman - let’s just get back out there and hit it.

It would be good if a moderator or the site owner could step in and do some moderating with someone of the content of this thread.

I have ZERO issues with anyone, even the members I don’t agree with and post rebuttals to their posts. I even offered to meet a couple of the ones I didn’t agree with to share some drinks and debate/discuss in person. The same holds true for Zimm. I am not the one on here being negative (see page 18) and calling people names, etc. I only respond to that, never started it. Are we all going to agree on everything, of course not, but when you start cursing and calling people names, I just can’t stand by. It’s just the way I am made, always been that way. I still don’t get why some are even on the forum when they said they don’t and won’t own a Grenadier and always seem so negative. Guess they are just bored and having nothing else to do but be on forums….

Btw, if you see my last few posts I have also asked to stay on target…..
