Hi! Newbie in Peterborough by oscar on Wed Mar 09, 2011 9:49 pm
Hi all!

Just bought my second Frontera. The first was a 91 2.3 Diesel some years ago, bought at an auction and sold on as I never used it as intended.

I have just aquired a 2002 5 door limited 2.2 Diesel mainly for towing a caravan. Im looking forward to having some fun and getting used to having a Fronty again. Most of my cars have been Saabs, indeed a 9000 aero was sold to make way for the Fronty. Wonderful car, lots of fun as it was modified but alas not up to towing the Caravan.

If youre in Peterborough, nearby or just passing and we are in, feel free to pop in for a coffee and a chat! Might even find where the other half has hidden the biscuits!

Regards, John

Welcome and thanks for the invite. Its dangerous to mention food of any description if you have a drive for goodness sake don't mention it, they'll arrange a spanner meet and there will be dozens of fronteras and owners raiding the biscuits and taking fronteras apart all over the place. :)
Like wise if you are ever down this way...

Hi Guys!

Thanks for the warm reception. I didn't mention the driveway? did I?

Just had to put a couple of tyres on the wee beasty, still sorting out a few issues and no doubt I will have to pop a couple of Qs on the relevant board!
