Never mind the quality, look at the MPG!!!
« on: May 16, 2007, 11:01:52 PM »
I'm having to chop in my 'Meega as it's too old for the company car scheme.

After some deliberation and considering MPV's etc, I discovered that late model Fronteras can be had for much cheapness, (relatively speaking!).

So if anyone of you have or see one for sale on your travels, get the details to me would you?

I have £7k-£8k in mind, but cheaper is good, black's the preferred colour but not important, would prefer an auto and a towbar too.

TIA.

Not my cup of tea at all GMC.

I didn't mention that I also need some towing capabilities too, so it needs to be quite sizeable.

Well, according to al the write ups I've read, they don't look any more daunting than Omegas and I've had one of two them for two years with no more trouble than I'd expect.

I think all the later model Fronties are are Troopers with a different body on them. So I bin told anyway.

Going to look at a nice black one tomorrow. Not quite as young as I'd've liked, but it ticks all the other boxes.

I love going car shopping!!! Cool
