Great site you guys have here! Some of you may know me from Planetisuzoo. I thought I'd go ahead and create an account over here too since the Frontera inspired the theme I followed on my rig. I just called it a Vauxhall since we have the Nissan Frontier in the states. I'm hoping that my work will brings me over there one of these days.

Here is a recent picture:

Welcome.

(Directions to UK:
head north to Alaska,
wait for winter to cross Bering Strait,
drive west across Russia into Eastern Europe,
continue west and follow signs for France,
once in France head northwest and look for signs to Channel Tunnel,
board Shuttle train,
dismebark in Kent and head north.
See elsewhere on this forum for the group annual meet venue!)

Wow, that's gotta be one of the nicest trucks I've seen. You must have spent a fortune on her with all those mods, and the repairs after the rollover were very impressive.

We'll have to try and find you a frontera badge or two :D

Re: Greetings from across the pond! by Retro Pedro on Fri Jan 13, 2012 1:32 pm
Hi cronk and welcome :thumbup:
What part of the states are you from?
Guess yours is the 3.2 V6 petrol with your gas coming in about the 60p a litre mark :mrgreen:

Last September, had a couple of weeks doing California and saw loads of nicely kitted out 4x4s including Rodeos, Amigos and Passports from our side of the fence. Then on the other side, loads of really nice fully loaded Jeeps but the one I really liked (yes I know I need to go and wash my mouth out) was the Toyota FJ.

What I really loved was the deep throuty rumble sound of the GMC V8 5.8 litre and Ford large pick ups when the thundered past.
