Hello there

[Amarok88]

Hi guys,
Just to introduce myself, I am new to the group and will be picking up my frontera tonight. After spilling 25litres of bitumen over the inside of my trusty disco I need a daily drive to replace it as I have no intention of fixing it through the cold months.
I have liked fronteras since they were built and other than coming close to buying a 2.0 sport some 12 years ago I have never gotten around the buying one,
Anyway I now will be the owner of a dark green 2.8tdi Lwb 1996 with 92k on the clock.

Always fancied the 2.8 as believe it to have the least electrics and is the easiest to work on. I also love the agricultural 4x4 sound and feel (hence my joint love for the green oval, sorry . )

It will be my daily commute only 10 miles, tow my ifor trailer, my rather large caravan and also house my dogs and mountain bike on my days off.
I look forward to being involved in a good forum.

Ps I am in chesterfield derbyshire area

hi mate and welcome to the forum, your analysis of the 2.8 is pretty much spot on, id only add thats its pretty much agreed its the best engine in the frontera range - i hope you are pleased with it

Hi mate welcome to the forum. You are getting the best of the Frontera models. They are beginning to get a bit rare so you have dropped lucky. The east midlands rep is only in Matlock and works in Derby he's a bit on the nutty side but we love him!!!!! When the good weather starts again or if we get decent snow he will probably sort out some outings.
