Grenadier Badges

[grenadierboy]

I didn't realise that there is a badge on the front of the Grenadier underneath the front windscreen on the left side.

A close photo says Fieldmaster and I suspect a Trialmaster but what will a standard wagon say?

Peasant farmer

Peasant farmer is a bit harsh ha ha, how about...Stationmaster.
In Australia and not too sure about the UK or USA but the big farms are called Stations.

 

[Davman]

What about "The Master", or "Das Master"

 

[ECrider]

'Jim'll Fix It'

Probably not ideal

 

[grenadierboy]

Actually - I'm not a big fan of the nameplate as I think it looks quite old fashioned & clunky.

Did Land Rover do something similar ?

 

[Tazzieman]

Someone will remark they misspelled "trail" but hey , I like the plate.
Then again I'm a big fan of Last Century styling and analog features.

The kids will think it's a Thomas The Tank Engine reference , just sayin'!

That's politically incorrect.

I like it.

It is Trialmaster and that comes from the sport of motorcycling, a discipline called Trials.

Involving mud and filth and cold...just the conditions my Trialmaster will often endure!

I Guess the standard SW may just say "Ineos Automotive" or something.

its the only external difference between the Belstaffs and the standard SW, so wouldn't surprise me if its omitted completely

I'm sure people will be making their own plates up for this to make it individual for themselves.

 

[DCPU]

Considering you have to pay £104 for the Union Jack flag on the wing, I'm surprised this is a freebie.

I've gone for a non~Belstaff edition, so do wonder if I'll have a blank indent in the bulkhead or a badge of some description.

Judging by some fuzzy photos there appears to be a version of the badge that might have 3 lines of text, maybe this covers the other versions?

... off to find the photo...

SW nameplate

WANNABEE

On a serious note (yes the above is a joke)

Anyone who has seen these vehicles, who the hell did they get to wrap those vehicles. They we’re all bloody awful, I am sure a back street garage in Birmingham could have done a better job for about £700.

Out of all the “problems” that the internet has found with this vehicle my biggest worry would be if I had ordered the wrapped nose and back door, I got the same guy doing mine in the factory who wrapped these trucks

@Shaky I agree with your statement.
Had the same impression when I looked at the prototypes wrap closely. Really like the visual of a contrast nose yet decided you get this better and cheaper aftermarket. Plus the freedom to choose from full color range.

I have attached an emblem pic from my Series II. 63years old but still with us. Aluminum cast.
So yes is the answer, Land Rover did have them but I don't know how long for.

The contrast nose/ door will be painted, surely....???
