Hi all - new car, new member... :-) by bascule on Sun Apr 27, 2008 10:00 pm
Hi all..

New owner, first frontera - in fact first vauxhall for many years!

Just picked up an absolutely immaculate 1999 T reg, the new shape, 3.2i limited 5 door, in silver with heated black leather, cruise, etc, bought from the original owner from new so every piece of history, (full vauxhall of course!) has had private plates on since new, he even put it back to main dealer to have the new plates put on..
Has just had new tyres, new starter, new gaiters, new MOT, (all from main dealer so £1100 ouch)

Its done almost 60k - but had complete new engine fitted by vauxhall at 35k, so has done less than 30k on this engine.. again, all documented! (was a bizarre firing issue apparently that they couldnt resolve so simply replaced!)

Here we go:

I reckon thats ok for £2k straight..

anyway, hi to all!
