Hello from Lincolnshire!!!!!

I just acquired a very nice Frontera Sport S 2.0L in BLUE :D part ex for a mazda 323f + £150, nothing wrong with it apart from it needs tiny little bit of TLC on body work, and engine needs a new air pipe and a radiator top hose as it has no coolant switch for fan so its constantly on, interior needs some replacement plastic trim on the back around roll bars, other than these bits its in very good condition, no rust on the sill what so ever and one 1 bubble on rear arches :P i will post pictures in the morning :)

also, it dont seam to have central locking although i can here a click sometimes on passenger side door will have to investigate this, it has no alarm or immob. also has no remote fob so going to look at kits :)

I've spent this evening cutting back the paint work and has much improved! :) https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1090409930974746&set=pcb.1090411540974585&type=1&theater

Hello and welcome m8.

What part of Linolnshire are you from?
I do frequent visits up to your part of the world visiting my daughter/son-in-law and grandson who live near Sleaford.
Seems to me that all the byways up there are restricted, must be something to do with all them rich farmers having an influence on the local parish councils - might be wrong but doubt it.

Yes it is my first fronty but not my first encounter with one as a friend who is also on here owns one. I live in Spalding area and do frequent trips to Heckington outside Sleaford, as for the byways, there is one or two ive heard off but yeah most of them are footpath/bridle and not dirt tracks

but tonight my radiator popped so had to order a new one for £59 posted brand new, so ill be off the road untill monday/tuesday when it arrives :/.

OH! and i thought it was a Sport S but its not its a 1996 Sport with the facelift dash windy windows non adjustable steering wheel, no center console, and no manual/electric wing mirrors you have to push the mirror its self to adjust, so very basic
