Hi every one im new on the site and looking to get another frontera(have my eye on a 2.5 tds lwb) ive had 2 frontera's in the past a 2.5 transglobe and a 3.1 lwb td. Im hoping to get in to it a bit more this time round as in the past ive thought it was to expensive but I have been reading up alot on "projects and modifications" and have some idea's for diy modifications. i will start a runing project thread when i get my :butt: moving.
