Just inherited a Frontera Olympus 2.2 DTI 2003 LWB from my father-in-law, and saw this forum and thought I would join as it looks a great place for information.

Welcome to the mad world of FOG, and the joys of owning a frontie. Some say theyre a car others tend to believe they have got a hobby parked on the drive... :shock:

if you havent already done it, it does help us to help you if you put your veh details on your profile so they show up on the right unde your user name etc.

Enjoy.
This posting may have been helpfull, on the other hand probably not... Either way, I may have had drink when posting it in which case it's probably not as helpfull as it could have been

Work safe, and remember all technical problems can be resolved with a hammer, the trick is knowing where to hit it and how big a hammer to use (I often find it may also help to have a spare bit in the shed to replace the bit you have just mullered ;) )

Work in Progress (or not as the case may be) I give you.... 'O-no' the truck.

Comments on 'O-no' the truck may be left here
