Frontera Technical Support

It is my belief that the Frontera had it's official public \ press launch at Slaley Hall in Northumberland, where a purpose built 4x4 course was created. This course is still in use today and any historic fans can use it (I think this is for a fee!!). I have driven it myself in the previous carnation that was my Frontera and it is a good course, although not very challenging as it is aimed at newbies to give them a taste of off-road. If anyone could confirm if this information is correct I would be grateful, as sadly I would like to be able to say "I drove the course where the Fronty was launched..."

designed by zx81 with a virus,

built by people who wanted to get an early day and weren`t really sure which end of a spanner to use,

but

driven by foggers,

repaired by foggers,

modified by foggers,

repaired again by foggers,

further modified by foggers

extracted by....none!! NO NEED!!!

extractee's of many antiquated green oval deadweights!!
