2.8 tdi its reliable its powerfull its cheap to run.
it does not suffer any of the challenges of the petrols or other diesels A legend in my own mind
2.0 Petrol / LPG - dirt cheap to run, does everything i want it to, (If i feel I wanna go fast, I use Dee's 182 sport clio!)

I wanted a petrol as I was fed up with years of clatter clatter diesels as well as the fact that the gap in fuel pricing was that diesel was now more.
The 2.4 came along at the right price TBH and as a VX virgin, I did'nt have any idea of the pro's & cons of the different petrol engines Martin
Bought a 2.0L because I saw it on Ebay and fell in love with it.
Sold my Fiat Brava for 750 quid and bought my Fronty for 500 quid and gave the wife the rest 250 brownie points for me then
Got a 2.4i as that is what it came with.
Had a 2L petrol Discovery (never again ) and got offerd a swap Best diceshion I ever made What happens, happens. What doesn't happen is not meant to

Now it's a 2.8 but it started life as a 2.0, does that mean it's technically a 4.8?
The 2.0 just wasn't beefy enough and I wanted the reliability of a diesel so the conversion is still under way... almost finished though cept for the last few bits. www.4x4search.org - your 4x4 search engine. 100% human submitted and edited!
Bought my 2.8 after seeking advice from here and I'm loving it,regularly doing 4-500 mile round trips and I've got to say I'm happy so far

Bought a 2.0 sport in a bad state for way too much, knowing nothing about the frontera other than I loved the shape. When that died I new what I wanted, so I waited, and waited, and waited. After nearly seven months I found what I was looking for - a near perfect 2.8tdi sport for the right money.
Never looked back Big Dave

I went with the 2.5 diesel for the simple fact that I am used to diesels. Don't like petrol cars, too expensive to run, less reliable if I get caught in a flood going through Welney and I can't abide the smell of petrol. I needed a bigger engine than my previous car in order to pull a fully laden horse trailer but not so big that it would need refilling every few miles. I hope it does what I want it to do.
2.8. bought because i was sick of drowning petrol engines off road, and it was the onlt diesel lump in an A series sporty.
love it. Matt 2.8TDI Sport. - 3" lift, 31" Recip Trials, Roof Rack, High Lift, Winch.
Wanted a Fronty, joined forum and everyone was banging on about how great the 2.8's are so went and bought one
Not dissappointed at all Soon to be without a Frontera after 10 years of owning one
I used to tax a cra for 6 months and the reminder to re tax was a reminder to get another motor (OK so I lived with my folkes them days)
Was totting around in a 4.0 jag sov and kept seing the same marron Fronty LWB flying around the main Island in Rugely. I started noticing more around me and all seemed to be keeping up with traffic better than the usual 4x4 makes and went sniffing aroung the local dealers. Got me first LWB A 2.4 in metalic Blue. Loved it, kept it 12 months, gew up moved out got married and had a nipper (bloody busy 12months ) Had to have another and went 2.2 LWB blue again A, did the engine some misheif and swapped for an omega orrible. Got rid of that for a 2.8 LWB grey 12months later a 3.2 LWB which I love and found a 2.8 shorty to play in. Fronty no.4, pimp mobile Treg 3.2 LWB lifted 2.5"
Fronty no.5 2.8 swb hd coils +2" 31"machos.
