    Vauxhall Frontera 2.0 Sport is very reliable. Great drive bit slow but thats not a problem. 20/25 to a gallon more on a run. Very happy with it. Pulls anything beat my mates range rover in a tug of war. Handling not great but ok when i got use to it. Would recommend it to anyone. Love it.

    Ive had my Frontera Sport now for over 9 years and covered well over 100K miles. Ive enjoied every single inch travelled. Dont believe "pub experts", the Frontera is just as good as a defender 90 off road - ive wiped the smug smirk off Def 90 owner's faces quite a few times.

    i own a green Vauxhall Frontera 2.0 Sport sport and i wouldn't swap for anything. its on a p (1997) plate. hardly any ware and tear inside and out.
    from what ive seen of other this seems to be the case with them also. overall a very fun durable machine.

    The Vauxhall Frontera is the best car ive ever had, goes anywhere off road, loads of room, plenty of kit (electric windows, central locking, power steering), no one gets in your way and best of all, the roof comes off in summer. I loved this car, unfortunately i couldnt keep it as it did 20 MPG on a good day! If your after a cheap 4x4, you cant go wrong with one of these beasts...

    The Vauxhall Frontera is just a really great all-rounder to be honest. The room inside is great, the practicality is good, the off road experiance is second to none and it will pull almost anything
    The parts are very cheap. Very cheap reliable mechanical and electonically and cheap to run. Great to drive.

    My Vauxhall Frontera is easy maintenance, less stress to drive than a car. It took me over the French Alps (deep snow, and I had to sleep in it up there). I went to maliga, via all over Spain & France. No problems at all. I've done 160,000 miles now and only been garage for MOT.
    I've fitted mud tires. They was an excellent choise. Don't let garages put you of.
    I also own a deisel car but will never sell my Frontera.

    Cheap, reliable motor, driving position is fine ease of mechanics.
    Back comes off great for summer.
    A good motor for not a lot of money.
    Loads of fun.

    I have a 2.2dti RS and was in a serious accident in December 06 whilst towing my horse on the motorway 4 loose horses ran in to my Vauxhall Frontera. The car saved my life. Obviously it was a write-off. I now have another one I do like it but since the accident I'm a little nervous. I would recommend this 4x4 for towing and general traveling, I drive to Manchester every day and have had no problems. Two of my friends have bought one. Very good car, not that bad on on diesel I'd say, about 400+ m ...

    This is my 2nd Frontera and my 3rd 4 wheel drive. I use it as a second car as it is a great work horse. I have had both this one and my previous one of road on a number of occasions and they cope excellent, you don't get many creature comforts but after all it is an outright 4X4 and not a modern SUV. There is plenty of leg room for both front and rear passengers and is a comfy enough ride. All the controls are basic so they are easy to get used to. When the rear seats are folded it has the same ...

    Brought a 1997 model Vauxhall Frontera 2.0 Sport, 2 owners with service history and low mileage, very cheap. 75000mls on clock,excellent condition, not been used for off-road before or used for towing. I find it nice to drive and good road handling, but I find it hard to get used to the reversing as high up position and lack of viewing from rear window, apart from that I am sure I shall get used to it in time.

    As stated earlier with Vauxhall Fronteras that I find irritating is the lack of after market spares other than things like service items ofcourse good stocks. But anything more than that they are impossible to buy in the after market sector like rear lights or light lenses or even bushes for example and the list goes on with that one.
    But no matter where these parts are purchased it takes nothing away from the very fact the Frontera is a very underestimated 4x4.

    I myself much prefer the old ...

    The Vauxhall Frontera is a nice car that is often knocked (SHAME). Very reliable and a pleasure to drive. The servicing is often expensive if you don't DIY it! If you are thinking of getting one get a diesel.

    I can highly recommend the Vauxhall Frontera, but they do drink petrol. I sold mine in April 2005 with 106,000 miles on it (S Reg and I was responsible for 60,000 of those miles over 3 years). This car can take a hammering! Being a Vauxhall, they are reliable (I have heard other people complaining about them for reliability). I didn't have this car from new, but over the 3 years I did have it, I had changed a couple of bulbs, a battery, and a couple of tyres through wear and tear (even thoug ...

    My Vauxhall Frontera is the best buy I have ever made, It is perfect for all terrain operations, Great handling capabuility on road mud and snow, Good design which stands out above the rest of the 4x4s.
    All spares easily accessable should any be required and very cheap compared to foreign makes and models. Mine is an N reg and has done 90,000 miles without a breakdown, uses no oil, and no leaks anywhere, I will never get rid of it for a newer model.

    The Vauxhall Frontera 2.0 Sport looks fantastic, and drives great in all conditions, with great visability. if you're looking to buy one, take your time as there are a few work horses out there that haven't been looked after - I was lucky enough to get my sport with loads of modifications, the previous owner must have loved the car as much as I do now.
