Hello there guys and gals. What an impressive looking forum you have here.
Last November I finally bought my self a Frontera. I've always had Shoguns or series Landrovers before, so this was a bit of a change for me, but, I must admit I'm well impressed so far!
All I need to do now is cure all the niggly little faults and I'll be a happy camper

to the forum, this place is loaded with info on the niggles, but then again a Frontera isn`t a Frontera without them.

Sorry to say you are slightly deluded with your Fronty if you think you can cure ALL of the little niggles. You are however on the best forum to solve most of them, so welcome along buddy.

Solving niggly faults yourself always gives you that "job well done feeling" that is far far more rewarding than paying someone to fix them yourself. Usually cheaper as well.
