I’d wait, right now unless you’re a very very very very patient I would advise waiting.Just discovered the Grenadier as a former Rover owner and going for a test drive this weekend. Leery of being an "early adopter". Justified? Feedback from anyone driving one for more than 6 months is appreciated.
I've been driving mine since March 2023, now 22TKM. At the beginning I had the well-known software problems with all the indicator lights that are mentioned here again and again. Since the software update, not a single message, not even any unjustified warning sounds. However, I also don't have the assistance systems that are now standard.Just discovered the Grenadier as a former Rover owner and going for a test drive this weekend.

>50,000kms in, very pleased with ours but also I had no issue with being an early adopter and presumed to encounter faults and immature support for an early production model.Just discovered the Grenadier as a former Rover owner and going for a test drive this weekend.

I ordered one a week after I discovered them in Dec. 2023. Got it last month. Perfect in every way. Best car I’ve ever owned. May buy a second one - was at the dealership this a.m. tempting myself. Good luck! - MarkJust discovered the Grenadier as a former Rover owner and going for a test drive this weekend. Leery of being an "early adopter". Justified?

Love it. Had mine 7 months. I believe this is the last time a company will have the guts to do something like this - and it will easily last 30 years. It’s a tank and has so much character. Door seals in front came loose - dealer put on new 3M tape. 10 minutes. Handle buttons stuck in back - graphite - 15 minutes. That’s it. Yeah you’ve got to turn off the speed warning each time - saved that screen as a favorite, takes 10 seconds at startup. I haven’t heard of door or safari leaks on recent deliveries, remember to turn off the speed warning and click “auto” on your AC, as well as click off auto start/stop. That’s my pre-flight checklist, at which point “Danger Zone” is up on Apple CarPlay.Just discovered the Grenadier as a former Rover owner and going for a test drive this weekend.

Hi @docmunny ... we're only four months in with ours, approx 5,000 km. Lotta city. Lotta highway. Several long days of offroading in the rough. Its our family beast of burden. We are not precious with it. We love it. We will deal with its small annoyances and quirks as they come up because, as others have said, it's fundamentally built to last. And nothing else seems to be nowadays. Enjoy the decision making!Just discovered the Grenadier as a former Rover owner and going for a test drive this weekend. Leery of being an "early adopter".

It’s pretty crazy the first time you see it right?! I came across it maybe 1.5-2yrs ago and I mentally fell over. My first thought was that it might be a new Defender, which I’ve always obsessed over and wanted. I’ve owned the LR Disco 1 & 2 in the past and now own a LR3 too, but I always wanted the Defender more than anything.Just discovered the Grenadier as a former Rover owner and going for a test drive this weekend.
