13 "Advertising"

For the almost the first time and now featuring "Grenavision" we focus on advertising and how INEOS are starting to step on Land Rovers home turf a little we discuss the potential for the tie up with Cherry, some oddball versions and a few classic but lesser known 4x4's from everyones favorite automotive crucible, Italy. 

 

12 'Gas Station Etiquette'

In this episode we delve a little deeper into American gas station culture, decide that lots of people give advice when you're digging holes and comment about the Grenadier Chassis cab spec. Not to mention glancing on the Grenadiers Sports car DNA once again with some tuning houses aiming for 1000HP. We also drift in to the whimsical with our new favorite segment, what option will be canned next with the demise of the secondary battery for this model year, with the factory and production processes shoring up the back end of the episode. Let the rambling commence.

10 "Motorsport Edition"

The chaps pick up from where they left off with this second half of the first show of the officially unofficial INEOS Grenadier podcast. It gets a bit indulgent in parts but they pull it together at the the end after waxing lyrical about rally, F1 and throughly agree that a Subaru can go like the clappers and are still dining out on their rally success but nothing is better than a Lancia Stratos.  Noisy motorbikes also get a nod as well as Porsches contribution to the motorbike world. They thoroughly establish that medieval hedges definitely can’t stop a rally car and that hipsters maybe should go cafe racing and it never looks good when you stall a Harley, but regardless, Stu loves lawnmower racing.

 

Also there were 7 colours for a Delta Integrale, 3 standard and 4 limited edition.

“1 Life on the Limit” 2013 Documentary about making F1 safer and is well worth a watch.

Some corrections for this conversation

The Pagani Stu was referencing was in fact the Utopia not the unpronounceable one. 

And Jenson in fact did use Chrysler engines

8 ”Homeward Bound”

The guys are back and hopefully better than ever, we join Anand as he returns home after collecting his brand new Grenadier, that's right we recorded a podcast in a moving Grenadier.

 

We discuss the Fusilier, the state of play with the Quartermaster and we throw some wild numbers around with regards to build numbers.

 

But the big question on everyones mind is how is Anand's HVAC and what's it like to be chauffeured around in your very own Grenadier.
