Was researching fixes and what was possible to do with these trucks and just typing general frontera related stuff into google and notice this forum popping up quite frequently. Joined after a little while of watching :)

Wanted a 4x4 for work, thought the Frontera LWB would be the best choice so did some online research and found this place. The rest as they say is history...
This posting may have been helpfull, on the other hand probably not... Either way, I may have had drink when posting it in which case it's probably not as helpfull as it could have been

Work safe, and remember all technical problems can be resolved with a hammer, the trick is knowing where to hit it and how big a hammer to use (I often find it may also help to have a spare bit in the shed to replace the bit you have just mullered ;) )

Work in Progress (or not as the case may be) I give you.... 'O-no' the truck.

Comments on 'O-no' the truck may be left here

Bought a Frontera and then was looking for some greenlaning and roof rack tips and then google sugestted you guys.
The rest is self explanatory, springs are ordered and some more mods are forming in my head, and who is to blame?

Myself really for buying such a good truck.

I was basically trying to find a fix for the annoyingly common speedo error, and came across this site.

Re: How did you find us ? by k@rli on Fri May 02, 2014 7:36 pm
I had problems with ABS system, so google'd lots of different things, and some how I stumbled on to this place, and just had to join :D
The closest thing to this site in Norway are off-road clubs, but they only do off-road stuff and ignore all other use of cars, so don't feel to welcome.
There is also a Opel Motorsport club I am a member off, but there fronteras are not interesting like ascona, manta and omega (vauxhall cavalier and carlton), so again, not much positive feedback there either :P

post 2...(yup I am known to do things backwards!)

I was the proud owner of 'Godzilla' a Green 2.4 LWB model A. :D

When I was younger I loved the look of the Frontera, all big rugged and a real honest to goodness 4x4, but could never afford one. :cry: Anyway, had a few quid a couple years back and got Godzilla loved It and was slowly working through years of dodgy wiring solutions and the subsequent fuse and relay blow or burn outs! when it suffered a truck driving along the off side from the back to the front, the truck only stopped when it snagged the nudge bar !
(the truck only scraped the rear wheel arch, both door panels, side mirror, side indicator and wing , front wheel arch in his traversal along the car...oh I loved him so SOO much!) :axe:

I sold it to a guy who fell in love with it and Fronteras in general, he joined this forum and suggested I join when I got the current beast, a 3.2 silver LWB model B. :thumbup:
Better to be late than to lie in state!

Fronty 'A' - 2.4 LWB - 5 speed. named: Godzilla (it was green!) ;-)
Fronty 'B' - v6 3.2 ltd - Silver LWB - 5 speed manual.
