What did you do with your Grenadier today?

[JohnHeagney]

17" KO2. I have not installed a compressor yet, so they were not aired down. I imagine it was a bit squirrely.

Same as mine, that’s most encouraging! You had a few wiggles but very sure footed.

The weird thing is it disengaged off-road and remained locked front and rear.
Anyway here’s another shot

I’ve some b roll that I took. I’ll have a look and kobble something together. Steepest incline I noticed was 39 degrees and a 34 lean to the rovers side in a nasty mogul. Not too much, but not bad first time out.

Thanks @Zartoon for the photo. Great day out.

Heya Stu - here did you get the full white + red lettering for the hood? I have some red “A”s on order for the rear door and hood but I like the white lettering You’ve installed. My Eldoret Blue / white roof IG should be delivered in the next 60 days or so.

Just got back after our highlands trip . Averaged 13.6L/100km (petrol) with RTT and a moderte amount of gear.
Drove beautifully on the dirt roads , very sure footed.
We always seek out the industrial heritage sites. This museum is stunning. Open 363 days a year , quite amazing as it's pretty remote. And the massive foundations were dug by hand , and concrete mixed by hand.
Workers had to pay for their own shovels or use the broken ones they were supplied with. No gloves ; it regularly gets below freezing here. No place for marshmallows!

Went to the initial Facebook Ineos Owners Group meeting at Camp Hill in Brissy. I don’t do Facebook but was a fantastic opportunity to meet with other owners and compare experiences, fittting of mods etc. It was a great turn out, and most enjoyable experience.
Stupid me - didn’t take any photos…. if you have any, please post and share.

glad it was a good day! Sorry I didn't get there... no Facebook, no details...
Might the Facebook group be amenable to notifying other non Facebook Brisbane Grenadier owners via the Local threads on this forum? just a thought...

Hopefully you steered some of those folks this way. There’s some local club related goodness coming our way here but all the bits and bobs on the backend are still being tightened down. Watch this space.

Great pics. Thanks for sharing @Tazzieman
We had a look around the Tarraleah hydro site and village during our last trip to Tasmania in 2019. Just down the road from Waddamanna. We missed out on buying it though.

Tasmania punches above its weight in so many ways. Can't wait to go back again.

The organisers were taking suggestions on board regarding the group’s future plans and organisation. I did suggest ready access for those who do not FB, which I was assured would be a consideration.

The RTT is pretty high up, and moving around up there is a bit dicey.
Bolted some plastic ecodek with added grip tape to reduce my odds of dying considerably

Nice colour on the 928 !

Is that money I see gushing out, when you lifted the bonnet?

No. I do all the mechanical stuff myself, have done since 2014 when I bought it.
Simple car to work on if you follow the Porsche manual and do it properly!

That's the neglected part of my acreage though it gets a bit of water when I wash the cars, occasionally.
