How many fronties on uk roads? by Shanemarsh1 on Fri Jun 04, 2010 8:13 pm
How many fronteras are left? . Last sat i drove from huddersfield to saltburn, m62,m1,a1,a19,a173, etc,never saw another fronty.Spent the week travelling between redcar,marske,saltburn,whitby,and scarborough and never saw a fronty and its not as if im not looking for them. On the way home today i spotted two silver fronty b's. Where are they all ? :?

I can confidently say there is no need to worry they aint dying out yet there is plenty round here on nottingham/derby and if you go to skegg it would appear that every other car is a fronty.
Regards Ady

Pics of the motor can be found here

There is quite a few down my way.
A couple I see around town, one two roads up from me and one old timer up the road from me for sale.
Also see quite a few out and about on the M40.

There are quite a few up here in liverpool.....think that Andy has owned most of them at one point or another..

seen 4 different ones in our little road in the last week alone..(none are, as far i know FOG members)

LWB black 2.2
silver olympus
lil white leafer (not as many dents as Gregster's)
and a very shiny dark blue one.


Is there any figures for how many fronteras were sold in the uk?

Oh I did see a very nice looking 3.0 Monteray (sp) the other day at the scrappy's..still owned, so not a scrapper..yet
The greatest lesson in life is to know that even us idiots are right sometimes
