Erm well hi all,

I've just bought my first Fronty, an R reg 2.5 tds in green and thought it was time to introduce myself. My names Ben and I'm from Yorkshire, though I'm currently down South near Salisbury - Salisbury Plain being an amazing place to start off with a Frontera and Ordanance survay maps do help :)

I love anything with an engine really and I'm a newbie to the whole off-road thing (well in my own car anyway) and my Fronty already has a few niggles, like a broken CD player i can't get out but it runs fine and gets up some hills that military vehicles struggle to

So yeah, Hi to everyone I'll probably be in touch with newbie questions about my Fronty when I find the time to start working on it properly

Bienvenue!
4 bits of good old Fence wire stuck down the 4 wee holes, 2 either side, and a medium screwdriver for a bit of leverage here and there and it should pop out.
Daft system.
If you need something done quickly just ask a busy woman then get the f"k out of her way.
