Didn’t LR publicly state that there was no chance of Ineos getting the rights ever? 2007 110 TDCi Station Wagon XS

Sounds like click bait to me. I can’t imagine they would relinquish rights. That would be too ridiculous even by JLR’s standards.

Don't believe everything you see and hear. Although come to think of it, Her Majesty did.

No the older defender was kaput.
They needed crumple zones, airbags and the like. I'm on IG: https://www.instagram.com/osloblue42/ Current: TD5 '110 "Lucinda" Thread here: https://www.defender2.net/forum/topic62562.html  |

According to my dictionary a grenadier can also be:-
a common bottom-dwelling fish with a large head, a long tapering tail, and typically a luminous gland on the belly. 
I'm pretty sure when people voted for a name for Projekt Grenadier they weren't thinking of a fish. Defender 90XS SW Mini Countryman Cooper S Morgan Plus 8 |

After reading discomog, I’d change my user name into something less fishy if I were you.
Eric You never actually own a Defender. You merely look after it for the next generation. http://youtu.be/yVRlSsJwD0o https://youtu.be/vmPr3oTHndg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GtzTT9Pdl0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABqKPz28e6A https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rLZ49Jce_n0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XvAsz_ilQYU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8tMHiX9lSw https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dxwjPuHIV7I https://vimeo.com/201482507 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSixqL0iyHw |
