    Grenadier misses yet another promised sales date

    They claimed to have started final retail assembly with deliveries in December. No sign of any sales yet and no news in the press or questioning of what exactly Ineos are up to.

    The motors you miss.

    For me I have had no better motor than my Daihatsu 4trak, why were these things allowed to be discontinued. The only off roader I ever was in as good as it was an old Subaru forester we used for going round parks at home, So anyone else miss the old 4 tracks?

    Gen 6 hi lux dpf problems.

    Our 2015 hiux. 3.0 engine is in for its mot. They can't put engine management light out. It's the dpf filter putting on they say. I've suggested the usual pikey farmers solution like removing the bulb and putting black tape over light. Anyone deleted it or any other solutions?

    I’m in need of a new car, or new to me at least and looking at buying something capable of sharing the towing with my ageing Land Rover for the longer journeys, basically the luxury suv type, and something I can see over hedges more easy to see what everyone else is up to.

    Is it time for NATO to enter Ukraine?

    Does anyone think that after fannying around humouring Putin that is time to push into Ukraine and help our European brothers? It would get rid of silly fuel price tracker threads for a start! Have we got any national cahonas or not farmers??

    Why is it 'obscene' for an energy company to make a profit?

    Every second word that comes out of Labour is 'windfall', are we getting back on the road to communism? It's a great time to brainwash the hungry of tbe world that their State will provide heaven on earth as well. Surprising the cauldron hasn't boiled over yet.

    Are you working towards net zero emissions by 2040?

    Saw this and thought I would put It to a poll. Some maybe at net zero already so they should answer “yes” in the spirit of the poll.
