Review of Vauxhall Frontera Estate 2.2 DTi

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 thin ...

Review of Vauxhall Frontera 2.2 DTi

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.

Overall I have found this to be a great car both on and off road. The toughened and hardened suspension is far superior to the old leaf spring design on the older models, though, this in turn makes off roading a little less comfortable. On road it ...
