Sadly I’ve crossed the Grenadier off my wish list for the simple reason that the rear seat don’t fold down flat with the floor. A massive design oversight in my humble opinion. I’m sure they could have found other space to fit the batteries etc in such a big vehicle, perhaps under the rear floor like Volvo.

The same ailment afflicts the L405 Range Rover. In the P38, the seats could be folded flat, and then rolled forward to give a reasonably long flat floor.

The L405, pah, they just fold to nearly flat, but not that useful, and they certainly don't tip forwards.

One of a number of retrograde steps.

602 hasp and staple for the lock and a canvas flap in place of the window for the freelander.

Marky Volvo 940 estate had super flat load area.  The the head rests in the rear stowing themselves was the magic bit.

The two stage bonnet hinge to allow it to raise vertical for larger tinkering.
