    Anyone not vertically challenged might want to sit in the driver's seat of the Grenadier to check for legroom. Right leg is OK but the floor comes up level with the brake pedal on the left and my foot had nowhere to go. I suspect the space under the floor may be required for a DPF but they would not allow a look under the bonnet.
    LHD market would not be affected.

    Yeah, saw that as well David. I understand it's where the exhaust pipe is routed. This was discussed very well in Stefan Fischer's youtube latest review of the grenadier. He raised a few other pertinent issues as well. Worth a look. I'd hope some of his comments raised do get addressed in the actual production vehicle. A bit of a downer, but will see how things end up.

    Well, the 300 could be out as an option for a while considering Toyota has now suspended orders. Of course theres always the getting one at current stupid used car prices option

    FYI

    INEOS Automotive have been working with the Australian Tax Office (ATO) on a Private Ruling exempting the Grenadier from Luxury Car Tax (LCT). The ATO has recognised that due to the Grenadier’s design, engineering and capability, it is not considered a Luxury Car for tax purposes and therefore all Wagon models, options and accessories are exempt from LCT. Our configurator has been updated to reflect this decision.
