Looks like I'm in trouble with the Mrs's again...
She asked me what I'd most like to do to her body...
Apparently "Identify it" is not the correct answer!

They only produced the Frontera 2.8 from 1995 to 1996 they range from M reg to P reg though it could be possible to get an R reg if it had been sitting on a garage forecourt for a very long time but I aint seen one yet.
At an M reg be careful its not a trooper engine dropped into a 2.3, the suspension will be leaf sprung and easy to spot the conversion if it has.
Deffo no T reg factory 2.8'S about

Could be a conversion, should have the 2.8 TD badges on the boot door.
From 96 on they replaced the 2.8 with the 2.5TDS motor
