Review of Vauxhall Frontera Estate 2.2

The UnderEstimated Sport (SWB) 4x4

Advantages: Fun, Smooth Lines and Cheap
Disadvantages: Starting to Show Her age

If you're looking for a 4x4 that's just as capable as comparative 4x4s but at a Fraction of the Price, here it is. Mine's an L (93/94) Reg but still runs well now. It is a Short Wheel Base (SWB) 2 Door Model, so bear with me if I include/miss out things other Frontera Sports have. I Chose the Frontera as it was Cheaper and known to me as Capable to handle anything I threw at it and it doesn't look as boxy as most 4x4s do these days! Driving ...
...30mph along the Tarmac, the Leaf-Sprung Rear Suspension does tend to increase the Bump Effect from Joined Sections of Road or Drains but it is negligable. The Frontera SWB doesn't like to acellerate hard and will creep up to 70mph on the motorway but once She's there She is very solid and you get Minimal Buffeting going past Trucks. The additional height makes it easier to see ahead and possibly avoid an incident. The Fronteras 2.0i Engine doesn't ...

Review of Vauxhall Frontera 2.0i

affordable 4x4

Advantages: cheapish to run, good driving height
Disadvantages: some annoying blind spots

We recently bought a s/hand frontera to replace the espace which a neigbour kindly wrote-off for us whilst we were eating our tea. After the usual insurance nightmare - despite being fully comp etc - we were left without a work vehicle for the best part of a month. When the insurance company finally paid-up, after a string of very assertive phonecalls - suprise suprise we couldn't replace the vehicle we had lost. So, cheque in hand we went looking ...
...7 seats, like the espace, diesel, like the espace, towing tackle, like the espace, and we could afford it. I was a bit sceptical, at first, but had a test drive and was pleasantly suprised. The car drove well - a bit agricultural in performance - but hey, there are speed limits. We took the plunge and have had nearly 12 moths trouble free motoring so far, the parts are reasonably cheap - very much so when compared to the espace - a set of roof bars ...

Review of Vauxhall Frontera Estate 2.2 DTi

Vauxhall Frontera 3.2V6 Love / hate relationship

Advantages: Smooth, roomy, powerful, good for towing.
Disadvantages: Lots of faults, unhelpful dealerships

...original was stamped Izusu, but Vauxhall denied the vehicle could be a cross-breed, although the newly designed running gear and engine was actually an Isuzu partnership design. Isuzu tried to help but Vauxhall thought nothing of leaving the situation lagging for months. Eventually they gave me £100 compensation for my trouble. In between these faults there was the resonating exhaust that a vauxhall mechanic said did not exist....until I demonstrated ...
...manageable. I again contacted Vauxhall hoping they would be interested and concerned to find out what was wrong with the vehicle. After all, the fault had been flagged at about three dealerships BEFORE it was gas converted. But no, they actually expected me to pay for part changes UNTIL the fault was found and then they would pay for the fault part. In my mind that goes along way in stating the philosophy of Vauxhall and in spite of really liking ...

Review of Vauxhall Frontera Estate 3.2i

Frontera sport RS 2.2i 16v

Advantages: Great ride, comfortable, good performance, cheap parts, removeable hard top, feels very safe.
Disadvantages: Poor paint, EGR valve, impaired vision when reversing, fuel consumption.

...These can be welded if found soon enough. The blow will sound like a manifold gasket leaking. Regularly keep the manifold and downpipe nuts and studs lubricated to save yourself from a major headache if it does go. The EGR valve, the achilles heel of all Vauxhall Ecotec engines! ...
