Evening all, newbie saying hello by monman321 on Fri Jan 07, 2011 7:57 pm

New member here found the site via Bing when searching for Frontera forums, just doing my homework before buying a Frontera B 2.2 petrol sport. Recently had a Sportrak, prior to that a Vitara. Currently got a Vectra 2.2 diesel, Ldv Campervan and a 1991 Volvo 940, 2 of which will have to go according to SWMBO (a fearsome creature she is too so I had better heed her words). :lol:

Anyway when I find the right vehicle for us I will post some pics.

hello there and welcome! I can say from experence that the 2.2 dti is a good choice. or the v6 if you can afford to run it

Hope you find the one for you!

Thanks for the welcome, I intend to get a petrol 2.2 3 door. I will be selling the volvo and the vectra once it's purchased. Whilst browsing the forum my main concerns have been satisfied as to the electronic/vacuum operated 4 wheel drive system and the clutch problems I have read and heard about.
