Sick of waiting

if you press it it goes into "software update mode" and the screen says "finishing soon".

"soon" being IA's mission word.

Not the dreaded black cover - I thought they weren’t going to do that.
At least they didn’t put a silly giant red ribbon on it.

Just had email telling me that I will have an additional £240 cost for the Grenadier due to UK Vehicle tax rise as of today. But they still hope I’m excited despite the fact that the additional cost is solely due to their none delivery.

Happy Tax Day!

I want to try one of those #Grenabier s. Probably take a while to brew and barrel, though!

You mean like this?
I got some very special gifts with it.
An umbrella my wife stole immediately, a yacht club membership but I don't yacht, two baseball caps but I also don't play baseball, and a bottle of bubbly that I was able to make use of

Do you have a boat?

You can sell the baseball caps to people who don't own a Mercedes.

Curious that senior bods at Ineos seem to think 1st deliveries are old news ~ this from 6 days ago:View attachment 7807922

HR ever with it’s finger on the pulse.

When my boys and I went to visit our incarcerated Gren yesterday we played with the interface. One thing we didn’t press was the Ineos icon on the screen.
I’ve circled it so anyone know what it does?

it may have been in the handbook but I can’t recall seeing anything.

That takes you back to the "home screen" at least that's how it works on my other cars.

Imagine what you’d have got if you’d bought a brand new one

That sort of thing should be reserved for young girls buying their first new car - mazda 3 or similar. Although BMW did it for the brides’ X3. Her bubbles were Pol Roger though

Excellent, finally another email from IA - what good news is in store, a contract to sign, or perhaps vehicle is in production, or Sir Jim would like to hand me the keys to my Grenny personally and is willing to travel.

NO - just that I need pay £30 more tax when I eventually receive an invoice!

STarting to think I should book an extended walking holiday like Tazzie and play it 'out of sight, out of mind'!

My holiday is booked, but requires the GREN, dilemma is what to buy in the meantime as I think my GREN is end of year now - hopeless!!!

We bought a new MB GLC in 2017 and got nothing, except the black polyester reveal and crap service thereafter.
Dave's dealer must have been desperate to shift some used stock

Haha! Sounds like buying a 2nd hand Toyota on the Gold Coast. DPFs apparently were never an issue!!!

I have always assumed buying anything on the Gold Coast would be running the risk of shonkiness

This is... the truth.
