Grenadier, or new Land Crusier, and car type or commerical?

They do make sense to me apart from the thing with the tachograph for me! Right ingredients built by folk who have been building Mercedes for an age! I'm told they got the stones to pull well too, that German taxi engine and box has got to be better than the shell spinning LR offering and the belt in oil Ford stuff!

Went offroad in one of the early prototype grenadiers when they were testing.  Fully agree generally issues with vehicles are ironed out over time.  But they've put years of research into the grenadier, I love their thought process/design, everything is practical and based around how can we make this a rugged work truck not a chelsea tractor.  Using parts from well established brands as already mentioned. 

A risk I'd very much like to take if I had half an excuse to get one.

Only problem is no commercial can’t claim vat as not carrying enough no chassis cab version as it has got through vehicle reg by the back door so only small production run allowed 

it’s not the vehicle they said they would produce it’s just a Chelsea tractor on steroids

Yep.

It's also using mass produced products.

They have recalled the grenadier for "upgrades" all ready because the customer is the test area...
