I Have Two Questions by Reeco on Wed Jul 22, 2009 2:56 pm
Hi All, I have two questions,

1, Is the Frontera Olympus DTi 01 - 04 a more reliable model than the previous 98 - 01 DTi model ?

2, If you had a budget of 4k max and you weren't going to buy a Frontera which other LWB 4x4 would you buy ?

Thanks for taking the time to answer. ATB. Reeco

Yes the later one is the one that had all the little niggles sorted... then they stopped building them :roll:

Only 4x4 other than a Frontera..... a Toyota Amazon 4.2 :P :P

Cheers for that Mate. This may sound silly but I really like the look of the Olympus LWB, it would be my choice of a 4x4 and I don't mind buying one as long as I won't have to replace anything and everything. ATB. Reeco

If your not taking it off road that would be my choice of Frontera too, fully loaded 8)

if i was thinking about replacing my present fronty and not with another fronty [which im not cos i luv her again now shes fixed] then i think i would have a good look at a mitsi shogun sport.

Hey Reeco, I know this is probably tempting fate, but I have had my Olympus for over two years now and she hasnt cost me a penny other than service and mot's.
The only thing to have given me any jip was the power sounder, now removed.
