1998 Vauxhall Frontera LWB Transglobe review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Bought from new 2 days old and the battery was dead (very old looking as well as being dead), fitted a new one with some arguing.
Four wheels out of balance.
No radio pop out panel bag.
Locking wheel nuts missing.
Plastic cap on the wiper arm broke.
Chrome wheel nut cover missing.
Steering wheel not fitted straight.
Badly painted front A bar.
General comments?
Ride comfort is very good, petrol 23 to 26mpg, handles on road very good, have not taken it off road yet.
255x65x16 tyres seem to pick up on groves left in the road by so called road menders.
As of current date the suppliers seem to be taking their time to rectify the faults (they got your money so they can take all the time they want).
