The Farmers Army
Ineos Grenadier are supporting The Farmers Weekly in helping to promote awareness about the projected shortage of labour for this forthcoming harvest.

Looks like Grenadier consider Farmers as potential customers unlike JLR

So......... does that mean Grenadier will compete on price with all the Japanese, Korean and Chinese pick-ups so many farmers prefer to own these days? I doubt I very much Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come
2020 D240 1st Edition in Pangea Green with Acorn interior. Now gone - old faithful, no mechanical issues whatsoever ever but the leaks and rattles all over the place won’t be missed!

Well if you base sales on volume (there for it's cheaper to make)... Sales of the Toyota Hilux in 2017.... 521000 units... or pretty much EVERYTHING JLR managed to produce in the same year.... That's ONE manufacturers model....
The market for COMMERCIAL vehicles world wide is massive.... If the Grenadier can come in even 10% over the competition, As long as it's a worthy vehicle... They should sell a fair number....
JLR keep banging on about a commercial Defender... However it's not really a commercial (I hope they prove me wrong)... It's just Commercial VED qualifying... Not VAT and more importantly BIK.... Like the D5 Commercial...(which in essence is what the 'Defender' is) It doesn't matter how bad it is, It can always get worse...

Prefer?

More like they need something and the 'go to' is no longer produced. Rgds.
