    As I pointed out before, the Grenadier isn't any sort of Vee as far as I know!

    There was also a RAM suffering the same predicament.

    In fairness it was very hot, and even with engine management reducing power, you can still do some decent damage when 45+ if you try and drive through the pain....

    Their engines have always been pretty bullet proof.
    Get on a few American forums and see what they think of the Ford power joke over there.

    Pretty nice video review by Sam (ex defender owner). Like me he thinks the big issue is the price. It puts them into direct competition with established players like New Defender, LC300, Patrol etc. They are all a bit different, but it's still a big issue.

    Charging us more for less is always going to be hard slog. The original defender charged less for less which was part of it's appeal.

    Hmmm... just out of curiosity, is there a chance that I saw a Grenadier in Brisbane this morning? More specifically, on James Street in the Valley. I saw what I initially took to be a charcoal coloured Puma approaching and then... it all looked a bit different...and then was gone....

    Well, James Street is the epicentre of Yuppyville.

    Good chance.

    They are now displacing the new Defender as the cooler inner urban vehicle of cool! (as the classic Defender 90 previously was).

    Here I was thinking they were built for a purpose!
