Where Are You? Part 2

I know the feeling and understand completely buddy..
I've now got a 2.4i which I've had for little over a month now but had a
2.2 petrol before that which got scrapped owing to being to costly to repair after the A/C system went t*ts-up and the Timing Belt snapped!!!

the 2.3TD is a good motor, SB has a 2.5TD and loves it.

the Fronty has a character to it unlike newer "4x4"s that are Boxes on Wheels

Exactly, i dont find the newer 4x4s of interest, now ive gone fronty i dont (and hope) i wont go back. I know my motor is underpowerd for its size but if its the only LWB youve drove you dont notice :wink:

. Ive been wanting to get off road for a while, even when i had my swb but never did and beat myself for it. I always bottled it thinking id get myself in crap or knacker my beast completly. Thats why i joined the forums so i could have the oppertunity to go with peeps who know there stuff.

Most of the Members here are off-roading newcomers .. quite a few are Fording Newcomers .. none of us here know everything.
But a very good bit of advice .. NEVER Go on Your own ..
It's always better to go with someone else in another Vehicle just in case!!

If you do knacker/damage the beast there's enough Tech assistance in here to get it back on the road!!

I know I won't switch back to another Vehicle, I'm stuck on the Fronty ..

Hi, i'm in wolverhampton and my 2.4 lwb isn't seeing any action. It's only being let out on the weekend now as i got a company car.

you coming too Jon ?
be good to have another 2.4i there !!

Well lads, im still coming.

But theres been a funny development at my end. My brother recently purschased a 96 vitara :oops:

(you can stop laughing now :lol:

) and he going to follow me up to see if he can get stuck.

Is this ok with you guys ? If not ill tell him to buy a real 4x4 and try again.

(seriously you can stop laughing)

Just ask driftwood how stuck the "Reliable" 2.8 Fronty gets trying to rescue a stuck vitara!! then remind Him it was a Petrol SWB that got 'em both out (The rest of us were too busy Laughing)

James, the Vit is quite a respectable Off-roader and as this is a Multi-National , Multi-Vehicle Forum He's more than Welcome to come along ..
We're not as "Clicky" as some other forums ..
(I could name a couple but I won't)

I could add .......the same 2.8 very nearly got stuck trying to rescue a 3.2

but i'm not going too :lol:
