The Australian price hasn't changed since the increase in November. I checked just then.Unfortunately both say including VAT
Because I'm training for a bike race later in the year, and I don't have time to set up a car before it. My current car .. I've done this type of trip so often I can have it ready to roll in a weekend. I need to focus on other things. I just can't do it.… but you’re about to see one, so why not stick down a (refundable) deposit now and lock your price in?
(Albeit assuming Ineos continues honouring pricing at time deposit taken)
I have no issue with putting a deposit down I suppose.. but if they ask me to sign the contract and say it's 6 weeks out and it's too early I guess I could just cancel. It seems silly though to put an order with the most likely outcome is cancelling. Prepping a car is not something I can deal with before the race. It's time consuming and stressful (if you have a time constraint). There is also the spectre of the unknown at this point (say no one has made a bracket for your awning yet or something stupid like that). Plus if I'm riding I need to know that the car is just going to do what it's always done so I can concentrate on the race and not worry about whether my support crew knows how to operate the vehicle. Or what if there are the unthinkable.. niggles with the grenadier that need to be nursed etc?… but you’re about to see one, so why not stick down a (refundable) deposit now and lock your price in?

There is an easy way to not get stung by a price rise.I have no issue with putting a deposit down I suppose.. but if they ask me to sign the contract and say it's 6 weeks out and it's too early I guess I could just cancel.

EDIT: And until someone makes a bigger fuel tank for the grenadier I don't even know how I'm going to fit enough fuel in.
I was kind of expecting a price rise later in the year so was thinking of putting down a deposit early in the second half knowing the car would come early next year. We aren't planning a big trip next year so I'd have all year to sort it out. Plus they would have been building them for 12 months which would make me feel somewhat better about the situation.
It's not like I don't have a car and have nothing to loose here.
