Picture taken in Aufenau Event - That is the vehicle (PT02-019) I did the test drive with. - I did order this as well. - Do not know if this is the final version of rear table. Seems quite rugged.
Yeah I like that. Did try to add to my configuration but told I was after the freeze point. Looks a pretty simple dealer or customer install though, always assuming I can get delivery of the parts!

Indeed - when you look close at all parts internally - there is nothing "clipped or sealed or special tools required.
All covers seem properly torxed - and very few different type - so a foldable table should be easy attached in an aftermarket process.
That is one main reason why I like the Grenadier. Easy to repair and maintain, attach / enhance.. using "quite normal" tools.

Over the Christmas break went and saw a PT02 in my local dealer - Gloucester, UK - had a joke with my father-in-law,
All grenadier fixings are either a Torx or 19mm bolt so that you would only ever need 2 tools 😂

Yeah - simplifies repair cost, - hence in Germany also considered in insurance premium..
For Ineos cost of supply, less warehouse cost, - fewer spare parts, minimising logistics.
Someone used indeed cerebral capability..

Look at the opposite.. there is a car called Renault Modus. (I think that is the one.. ) changing a headlight need the entire front and bumpers removed.
Plastic clips and other shite break need replace.. parts of it fall in less / not accessible areas and make noise somewhere in the vehicle sooner than later..
WTF.. perhaps cheap in production.. lesser skilled work force needed - but difficult to repair and huge logistic effort and operational cost increases.

Better/different aftermarket options will also be available by the time things cross the Atlantic.
Oh I’m sure it looks like the factory bit is a bit overbuilt imho, I also look forward to the L track solutions people and the aftermarket come up with for the load space. I went with Etrak in my D1 for similar utility and it’s been fantastic.

Yes, THIS is a car made (or designed?) in France.

Many years ago I had an R6. I bought it for 250 DM. It was so cheap because the crank's shaft oil seal was broken and thus oil leaked onto the clutch.

So I thought (coming from an Opel Kadett) it's an afternoon to repair it. But I haden't realized that the R6 was a middle-motor concept and even worse it was french.

I had to dismount
  • the air filter
  • the carburettor
  • the intake manifold
  • the exhaust manifold
  • the exhaust Y-pipe
  • the starter
  • the entire steering linkage
  • the steering gear
  • the front break lines
  • the front brakes
  • the front suspension, transverse links, dampers
  • the starter
  • the gearbox
  • a ton of brackets, holders and metal sheets
and some other things that I don't remember. I needed a number of special tools that I didn't have and that would have cost more than the whole "car". So I made them myself, which took an extra day or two.

The whole mess ended up taking a week. 🤮

Believe me: never a French car again. Ever! And now maybe you understand why I'm so allergic to this "Made in France" bullshit.
