hopefully a new frontera owner

looking at getting a 2.2 frontera n reg. it has 190k but had a new engine fitted at 60k
are these engines any good? would this be coil or leaf springs

[bobbinsjob]

Helo mate, the 2.2 will be a coiler. I belive they did suffer with a weak bottom end but Sir Doris is the know all on the 2.2 so will leave to his superior knowledge

lol think you may have a bit of a biased view on tht situation
what they like aint driven one yet, will a lwb be ok for going off road if i get a bit adveturous??

[4x4 bobby]

All Fronty's are good offroad and yep im biased just a little, you'll find most of us are nuts where are trucks are concerned. They grow on you and then its a love affair and scraped nuckles. You will find it a big difference driving it compared with a car. I drive a Golf to work most days but if i get the excuse i drive the Fronty !!! Go for it mate you will love the experiance and any problems you encounter can be sorted with the aid o FOG.
