Where Rob keeps his adventures packed and ready
The Grenadier transforms utility into ritual. What begins as a capable off road companion becomes something more personal, a rolling repository of the gear that defines how one lives and travels.

The registration reads GEARGUY, and everything about this cream and beige Grenadier explains why. What makes the off road vehicle genuinely remarkable is not its full box section ladder frame, nor its permanent four wheel drive system with centre differential lock, nor even its BMW sourced 3.0-litre turbocharged straight six. Rather, it is this: the way it absorbs intention. Rob has equipped his Grenadier not with showroom accessories but with the equipment of genuine expedition, and the vehicle wears it without fuss, without affectation.
That red gear bag lashed to the rear door is not decoration. The roof rack laden with black weatherproof storage is not a nod to capability. They are the tools of someone who understands that a vehicle becomes an extension of how you work and explore. The Grenadier’s 30:70 split rear doors and generous loadspace mean there is room for what matters, the discipline of proper preparation, the commitment to going somewhere difficult and staying there comfortably.
There is intention in every mounting point, every tie down, every considered placement. The Grenadier’s exterior wiring runs to mounting points front and rear, its chassis engineered deliberately for accessories and modifications. It does not demand you compromise between capability and practicality; instead, it insists on their marriage. Rob’s vehicle, parked on a forest track beneath autumn canopy, becomes a statement: this is how people really use machines of substance. Not as symbols of adventure, but as instruments of it.
