How do you like it? Cost of maintenance? Any issues? From what I have read they have a BMW powertrain so should be easy to get parts for I would think? Ineos Website |

Found the old thread. Seems positive. Old thread link I’m not a gear head. And not huge into off roading just going hunting. Or on the farm. This is quickly becoming a higher priority on my next car list. I’ll be forced to get something next October. That’s when the daughter will start driving the forester that I drive. |

Bought one in October. I’ve been shopping for an old LR 110 for years, but couldn’t risk the reliability for long road trips. Ineos scratches the itch in every way. Sela Green Fieldmaster with triple locks, aux power and safari windows. Mild lift, reupholstered (dark brown), new steering stabilizer, tons of lights wired in and a drawer system so the rear cargo area is flat for the dogs. Probably 20 other things I’ve forgotten about. It’s about as analog as you can get these days. It’s not quiet, it’s not fast. I will never ever use it to its full potential, My use cases are probably the most opposite of what it is …and yet l I love every minute of it. |

My understanding is they have a severe lack of dealer/shop support. Some bmw mechanics dont want to touch them. I think the closest dealer to me would be San Antonio which is a long way aways. And at the cost it competes with the new land cruiser, 4runner, bronco, and jeeps. And if your paying for what is likely really high maintenance cost just because of brand the Gwagon is also an option |

Any idea what they ended up buying from you all when they traded it in? Thanks |

Any idea what they ended up buying from you all when they traded it in? Thanks I wasn’t involved. We always take in some bigger ticket stuff at the end of the year, business owners need to move money around. A nice 911, X7, M8, the Ineos. It’s been a busy week or two. |

Bummed the old thread went to archive. I thought there was a much bigger buffer, th last couple pages in this forum are really old threads. Here’s some updates: I’ve done an Owl Glat Earth roof rack, Leitner side kicks and Jerry can holders, now working on installing a bull bar/winch bumper.

I have no dog in this fight, but.. I spend most of my time in Houston and Ranger Rovers are very popular here. Due to this, Ineos set up a retail outlet and I see quite a few of them here. Nice looking but way too small for my needs. I do appreciate the old school design of everything on it and much better looking than the dorky G wagon too. |

Diabolical Inc aluminum drawer system. I like it. Very solid feeling. The “leveling kit” for it (fills in the gaps on either side) plays well with the driver side Baja Box from Agile, but the passenger side Baja Box doesn’t. No big deal, the Baja box fills most of the gap, so I just didn’t install the parts on that side. Attached File Attached File |

@Vne Close to level with folded down seats, but not flush. I’m thinking the sleeping arrangement with this configuration would have to be the tip up portion of the seat removed (quick detach clips are hitting the market), head toward the back. I think where the “seam” is between seat and drawers would be a non-factor under a sleeping pad, but I’ll need to test that theory. Attached File Attached File |

Every time I get close to saving up my pocket change for one some other priority comes up and sets me back a bit. But seeing that really elevates its priority for me. Man, I can't wait to get one. Thanks for posting those pics. |
