New vehicle by voodoocars on Wed Mar 24, 2010 7:32 am
I've done it - finally getting a Frontera today. 99' 3.2 V6 auto. Not a mark on it inside or out. Fully loaded and I think it was a great price. I hope I can get plenty of advice from everyone on here to make it a pleasurable ownership. Its even had the clocks replaced...

I might go for an LPG dual fuel job - what do ya think?

Yeah, I need it for work and the kids so I wouldnt mind making it more economical. When you say lots of room under the rear do you mean for the extra tank? I've never seen an LPG swiched vehicle but theres a place near me that does it so I'll mooch on over there and have a look. For the money, this truck is the best value I've seen for its size. I just hope its reliable although it has got a FSH. And a brand new set of tyres 6 weeks ago at £600 (phew!).

Sounds nice 8)

The lpg tank can be fitted under the boot area where the A series have their fuel tank, saves the lpg tank taking up your boot space. 8) Think thats where Alex means.
