Dealer told me today, after arriving the Grenadier at dealers place, they need min. 3-4 weeks until papers arrive, options installed etc. …. So earliest May now or June. Still on production date Feb. 23😩

Just had an update from my retail partner to say my Grenadier has been built and passed batch and hold and is ready to be shipped! They are expecting a delivery mid April.
Good news. I wonder if it still needs a software update at the dealers if it was caught in the batch and hold process. And are Hambach now producing fully compliant vehicles at the end of the production line.? And are Hambach and IA communicating to each other better.

@Eric It's a question I have put to the agent. Will update if I hear anything.

A lot of retail partners seem to be "ready to go" but are just wating for the green light from INEOS.
Some senior management at Ineos seemed to be inferring more:

She wouldn't enjoy living at our place. Every week at least 1 huntsman spider makes an appearance , under the visor , in the footwell or door jamb.
You just live with them and they leave you alone.
Phobias are dangerous.
I look after my hunstman as they eat all those stupid daddy long leg spiders. sorry just passing time waiting for my grenadier. as the wait has been too long like waiting 2 years for a Henery lever action rifle. IF they cant supply by August I will cancel and go F150.

I call this morning the comedy club called Ineos Customerservice:

Peter: Good Morning, could you tell me some news about my order xxxx
Service: Good morning Peter, yes I find your order, but you haven‘t paid until now the car.
Peter: OK, I got no information that I should. So the car is ready?
Service: No, not started yet, missing parts for assembling.
Peter: But I have to pay?
Service: No, we will get in touch with you, when car is produced.
Peter: Any time frame for delivery?
Service: No, we do our best.

Did they start the morning with a Gin Tonic? Useless communication.

After I received a mail from Ineos 7 days ago that my car is now in production, I yesterday received a call from the dealer (Krüll Hamburg) that the car is already delivered since some time. The well-known software update is still missing and two or three parts must be replaced as part of a "recall operation". He could not tell me whether the attachments to be assembled by the dealer have been also already delivered. He answered „yes“ to my question, whether it could be realistic that the whole thing would drag on for another 3-4 weeks.

Yesterday evening I was about to chainsaw a log about 1m length. Rolled it over and the bark fell off , revealing at least 100 huntsmen , teenagers judging by size and the mass of moulted skins nearby. One big angry mama also!
Anyway I proceeded to chainsaw the log. Can you believe , some of them walked right up to the spinning blade , 5mm away , I kid you not, not the slightest bit perturbed...well to be honest , a bit pissed off.
Life in the bush is never dull.

Good of you to ”log on” to the “web” and tell us!

My neighbour came over and I mentioned the spiders ; he said "Oh no , don't!"
I said "you should get desensitised"
He said yes, he did the university desens course. On the last session the test was putting a hand over a jar containing a huntsman. He was OK until it moved a leg. He said he flung his arm across the table and cleared it of everything resting there.
I told him he was incurable. Just live with the disability that is arachnophobia.
I digress from the topic. Again. Sorry.
