Sticking courtesy light switch that caused an intermittent alarm problem.
No other problems encountered.
Great fun car, that's reasonably priced for a 4x4 and fairly cheap to run. Clarkson has got it all wrong (again) and has totally missed the point about this vehicle. It's a good spacious practical bus, that can take the knocks and was never meant to handle like a Ferrari!
Having driven off road under demanding conditions (in a disused quarry under 3 inches of snow), I can vouch for the car's capabilities off road.
This car takes the knocks O.K.
I too have a 2.4 Frontera 1992 LWB. Goes round roundabouts great, tows well, stops great, full of electrical problems, but who cares, I love it.
I too had fun in a quarry, it went well with water just below the door handles, the spark plug holes were blocked with mud at the end of day, and never missed a beat.
The fact is they are better than Range Rovers for keeping water out.
KEEP ON TRUCKIN, STEVE.
I have had my 1994 LWB Fontera for 18 months now, and if it ever does die then I will buy another! It handles well and its great off road. I've driven through Mud Snow and floods and never had a problem. I have had a futon bunk bed with both matresses in the back (with the seats folded down obviously) so its like having my own van as well as a car. In fact in the 18 months I have had it, the only thing to go wrong was a puncture! I would definatley recommend these beasts.
