Had fronterass for over 7 years ran a 2.8 tdi for many years  the latest two they do look a bit different now

The RS is practically new with 43k on it got it last year one owner but has not stooped it being out in ice snow and floods.

Has and uprated anti roll bar bushes and USA monroe shocks from the isuzu amigo
 
The 2.2dti limited has a few more dints in it has old man emu suspension and uprated anti roll bar bushes.

It also has light bar and large towing hook for recovery

Pair of sweet looking Frontys you got there mate. :good:
Theyre obviously not shy of the rough stuff, but I bet they're a bugger to keep that clean. :scratch_ones_head:

its easy enough got a local wash that has a ramp so cleaning underneath not that bad.

To be honest they tend to work for a living the limited does 500-600miles a week.

Only had one problem with in in 18 months and that was vac pipe

if you keep em serviced they go well same engine as vectra omega 2.2dti

Its just extra bits like checking and changing diff gearbox and transfer box oil but can be done on the drive easily

Wouldn't fancy your fuel bill, doing 500 - 600 miles a week. But then I don't know how juicy a Fronty is. :scratch_ones_head:
I run an Astra 1.7D for work and that averages out @ 45mpg, not bad for an old pooper. :lol:
My bike only does around 40mpg, but that's because I'm a speedfreak. :laugh:

I'm impressed. :good:
I was of the opinion that they were thirsty beasts, 25 - 30 mpg max. Might be able to run one after all. :lol:

the 2.8 2.2dti are the most economical of the lot but are both different in driving style

2,2dti 16 Valve plenty of revs High Torque 

2.8 brute power woulkd pull 3.5 tons no problem and low reving High Torque
