Hi

Bought my first (and only) Frontera about 3 years ago, 2.3 Turbo Diesel LWB spent ££ 1000's 2 date (lost count actually) all family and friends think I've lost it lol, but I love it and be happy to spend another few 1000 to see it looking and driving really cool.

Joined suppose for new friends/help/advice and learn how to actually drive the vehicle off road. to date only appreciated it when in some 6 inches of snow, whilst most were skidding around, I was doing 50mph and the vehilce was so sure footed and stable it really suprised me....hence I would like to find some mentors in here, go along to some meets and be gently introduced to some 'sane' off roading (once I get the paint job finished I don't want it scratched lol).

So that's my 'Hi' to all here
