So, knowing what you know, would you buy it again?

Yeah nah… after watching our local dealer destroy any confidence and now we are in for a change, who knows, I don’t think Ineos are overly serious about supporting their customers. The service reset is just one of several simple ridiculous issues etc…
They messaged me today to let me know if I still wanted the door buttons replaced under warranty, I need to do so now or they will send them back, this was after explaining several times I am away and my vehicle cannot be driven due to the failed driveshaft boot, and them telling my wife to drive it in 130kms… maybe it will make it maybe it won’t… their reply…

So after spending the best part of today under the vehicle fixing the unfixable so far driveshaft issue, as the above dealer won’t acknowledge a problem, to me at least it’s not the vehicle it was meant to be, any large purpose built 4WD should easily handle a simple heavy duty mild suspension lift and tyres. But as we know even non lifted are failing increasingly.

Shame as for the most part it’s a great thought and concept, in 2022 I was going to pull the trigger on a full Ashcroft/M57 swap etc… on my Puma but went with the Ineos after waiting to see and drive one, was impressed and still am but you know what you know and no one knows these… and as they age I don’t think they will be known any better.

As a long term Landrover owner I was always aware of the odd breakdown, but I was never stopped without a solution, and to be honest I am not as limber as I once was so the fix is not as fun as it once was.

Anyway will see if anyone comes up with some solutions, if anything it will maybe be collectable…
 
Without hesitation. Maybe a different color, maybe but spec'd the way I have it. Unless portal axles were a reasonable option, then would probably add those.
