I miss my old Frontera

AlexD333 · 14-11-2014, 22:11

Me an the missus do miss old fronty, we sold it to some dodgy Welshman (prob makeitfit)

The dude bought it over the phone and when I told him it has scars ect he said "ah don't worry, I blew my other one up"

We still wonder to this day what happened to old fronty

Hehe yes sir

And Firebobby in answer to your question google my phone number off that advert. It should answer the question pretty quickly

Well I do not miss my old rover 25 one bit. Most boring car Iv ever driven. Loving the terrano wish I got one sooner.

jims-terrano · 15-11-2014, 10:34

I love my Terranos and think theyre great cars. That said for some reason Id love a defender or a disco despite people saying how bad they can be. I do know people that love them and dont seem to have much bother with them too.

Mind you I know some of them also say that my Terranos arent meant to go off road and their LR's will carry on going any where and mine wont

have to laugh to my self at that point. I dont believe in brand snobbery but I know how capable Terranos are

Not had anything to do with Frontera's, wanted one a long time ago but dont like the look of them these days.

Don't start me off.....had over 13 reliable years out of my SWB 2L petrol. It was 15 y/o when I sold it for the Terrano (needed more luggage space & a auto capable of effortess towing.
Much easier to drive & never got stranded, as opposed to Terrano which has left me at the mercy of Green Flag twice (prievious owner's dodgy maintainance!) & bogged-down in slippy fields twice (I blame the tyres for the latter LOL) inside first 2 years.. Wouldn't swap back though, it's a much more comfortable ride!

PS: seem to remember there's a website that gives present owner details?

Sally was a nice clean rust free motor, again an arse of a previous owner but Solarman sorted it in the end.

As for a web site giving current owners or for that matter even previous owners would be breaking data protection laws.
