Didn’t LR publicly state that there was no chance of Ineos getting the rights ever? 2007 110 TDCi Station Wagon XS

Sounds like click bait to me. I can’t imagine they would relinquish rights. That would be too ridiculous even by JLR’s standards.

No the older defender was kaput.

They needed crumple zones, airbags and the like. I'm on IG: https://www.instagram.com/osloblue42/

According to my dictionary a grenadier can also be:-

a common bottom-dwelling fish with a large head, a long tapering tail, and typically a luminous gland on the belly. Rolling with laughter


I'm pretty sure when people voted for a name for Projekt Grenadier they weren't thinking of a fish. Defender 90XS SW

After reading discomog, I’d change my user name into something less fishy if I were you. Rolling with laughter
Eric You never actually own a Defender. You merely look after it for the next generation.
