Hi Guys, I'm new to the forum and only found it by chance when I posted a thread on another forum! I'm certainly glad I did find it!
I live in Bacup, Lancashire and own a M Reg Frontera 2.0 Sport (Petrol) I have had the vehicle for just over 3 years now and have had very little trouble from it. The only thing that I would say is in hind sight I should have got a long wheel base Frontera because of the equipment I often carry about - Several rifles, traps, dead rabbits. pigeons, foxes, etc: all to do with my work )Part Time) as a vermin controller. My 4X4 is my lifeline in my work as I spend most of my time going across rough, hill farm land which many other vehicles would not entertain.
I love wildlife photography, (which is another reason for having a 4X4,) especially taking photos of Deer and Foxes, and my wife and I do quite a lot of Crown Green Bowling (Not very well ademittedly, but we enjoy it)
All in all, I'm very glad I found this forum!
Thanks Guys!

Welcome to a fellow Rossendalian!

I am just round the corner in Rawtenstall - if you hear the roar of a V6 then see a Green X reg Sport with fog stickers in the rear side windows and a blue rear bumper (don't ask - reversed in to a concrete bollard - not got round to painting it yet!) then it is me. When I say hear me, I mean it as I have a louder than standard exhaust!
