Did anybody order this number plate already (JOB1). Cool number plate to have...

I too am glad to have chosen Sela green. Not that mine will ever look that clean post delivery!

 

[JOB]

I wonder if in years to come JOB number plates will be associated with the Grenadier in the same way as HUE plates with Land Rover?

I have E13 JOB on my SL, it might have to be transferred when the Ineos arrives!

Even if I won a lottery I wouldn't spend that on a piece of lettering. LOL.

 

[Tazzieman]

Is it actually a real plate or photoshopped on in some photos?

Even to my old eyes it looks like a cut and paste effort.
Jim would insist upon gothic script.

Still odd though that no contracts received yet. Unless they've shortened the 60 day prior build deadline.

Agreed. Given that no contracts have been signed, the only cars currently running off the production line must all be demonstrators - or fleet buyers.

Seems logical to me: Even if they claim to have "perfect production results now" (they have to at some point), that would mean another level of quality assurance before delivery to end customers.

I would assume, though, that this is "made to order" production, i.e. they only start building YOUR Grenadier once they have your blue ink on the contract. But as we have been promised on Thursday, the week before last week, an outreach within 2 weeks, we should hear something by this Thursday. (I know - HOPE is a 4 letter word ;-) )

edit: typo

We actually don't know that no contracts have been signed.

Remember those agent emails looking for VIP customers to accelerate their orders? Ineos might be looking to recruit a sample of new owners to form a post-delivery QA group.

Part of bringing them into the tent might be a requirement not to discuss publicly...

Even INEOS Group employees purchasing a Grenadier have not had contracts from their dealers....(or discounts!) so not sure who these VIPs are.
I thought first month or so of production was allotted to demonstrators, press vehicles, sponsor cars and the winners of the return trip home competition of course.

How many agents are there who get a vehicle? Each of them will probably get three to five over a certain time.
agents x 5 / number of cars produced per week might bring the number of weeks the first customers have to wait
