I agree 😁

Maybe the first 10, if I don't make number 1 🤣

Does anyone know if they'll do serial numbers or anything which says what number they are? For example I could see that I have Grenadier 37 (totally made that up, but you know what I mean)

Might I ask which dealer you will be taking delivery via, and what is the spec / colour of your car?

Also, if you're receiving your car and the rest of us are still frantically checking emails everyday, would you mind if we all stand outside the dealership and clap / gasp as you drive it out of the showroom? 🤣
Edinburgh, Scotland (please don't call them to find out when yours is coming 😂 because they call you as soon as they hear something on yours, so just be patient)

In terms of spec, nothing special
Black, station wagon (commercial), steel wheels, rock sliders, black leather interior...

I'm guessing I was 'priortised' as I was on the prototype tour, pre ordered as reserved as soon as possible....other than that, I can't think why I've been put to the front - other than being a good guy, of course!

🤣 Please no! That would make me feel bad on you still waiting 😄

Same here - reserved and ordered on the first possible day, went on a 2B tour prototype drive, a PTO-2 drive and all the rest. I suppose I must be one of life’s interminable losers; either that or people must think I’m a C and put me at the back to the queue for everything!

And my uncle's name is Sir Jim, but I don't think that has anything to do with it!!

Just and FYI - Spoke to my local dealership today (as they were supposed to have a Test Drive ready model on Monday 23/01/2023). They are the dealership for one of the winners and Gemma is yet to get her IG. So the dealership is hoping to have their test drive model this week/early next week.

Spoke to my dealer today as well and they are still waiting on their demonstrator, similar story. Re Gemma, what an inspiring story, I voted for her. Hope she gets hers soon.

It sounds like the official global launch is the 8th February and there is an embargo on journalists giving driving reviews before this day.
If they had been shipping dealer or customer cars prior to this then journalists and youtubers would have grabbed them and reviewed to be the first.
So clearly to me there was never going to be any deliveries prior to 8th February.
I bet we will see a flood from that day onwards

Wait till he drives past your house leaning on the toot button... 😝😭
It would be good if you could change the function of the Toot button into something useful.
I could count on one thumb the number of times I have used the horn in my car in the last 5 years.
That button is taking up a lot of handy realestate for something I will never use after the first week

It's a good thought.

The video of the horn toots, especially in multi toot mode, sounded quite aggressive to me and not something I'd likely use.

I might use it in the first months to happily toot every other lucky grenadier owner I come by 🤩

Now I’ll be able to toot the bloody cyclists instead of just swearing at them. 😂😉
