Newbie From Surrey

Postby Chapstick44 on Sun Apr 10, 2016 2:42 pm

Hi,
Just purchased my first Frontera. A '98 2.0i Sport 3 door jobbie. Hope to have some fun in this. Plenty of room for my two dogs in the back :thumbup:
76500 miles on clock. Engine and gearbox are really quiet and smooth.
Just had new brake pads fitted all round.
I slipped in a new air filter, didn't really need it but had a new one anyway.
Checked all four spark plugs, all ok.
Next job is oil & filter change.

Looks like I'm in trouble with the Mrs's again...

Apparently "Identify it" is not the correct answer!

Thanks for replies & welcomes. :)
Some of the bodywork has seen better days but not bad for the age of it. :)

Happy days.
