Pulling Power

[nick nick]

Hi All,,

Just thought you lot might be a bit interested, Frontera V6 fully loaded with dogs (the other arf and stuff), and a 2x ton caravan 25ft hanging off the back,

Just driven from Chi in West Sussex, all the way through France, Northern Spain, then all the way down to the Costa Del Sol, where I am sitting writing this blog, is around 8:30 am the sun is out just into 20c..

Anyhow the 2000 V6 Frontera made the 1500 mile trek without missing a beat, only used half litre of oil..

Apart from fuel stops, the beast just kept going, fuel return on average the low 18mpg -- most of trip 20mpg, keeping to 50 -- 55mph...


Cheers all

Nick

Thanks for all the quotes,,,, was a great trip, seven months in total cos I worked down at a mates garage, so before the trip back had to do some mod's to the exhust, the flexi bit broke in half, had to weld a piece of pipe across the gap,, "hey" did the job...

Got back to Uk sailed through the MOT no adv,,, need a set of 245 / 70 / 16 tyres if anyone knows anybody that does part worn job's..

CHEERS

P.S will try and put some foto's on this site.....
