Now that I do like 

wanted a original but not prepared to pay silly money......

[TWINSET]

Can't see there being much (if any) difference between this and the original version and it'll hopefully come in around £150 - £180

[Gaz!]

Yeah I was thinking about £179.99 but still worth it.

 

maybe different wheels and tyres but can’t see it being much different....

[TWINSET]

The wheels are still relatively current but the tyres will probably lose the branding

 

 

And that front bumper looks half reasonable with the horizontal bits cut off

I too thought frontera, thought it was just me

[Gaz!]

Yep your both right, Vauxhall and Isuzu had a deal many moons ago, the Diesel engine was Isuzu and petrol Vauxhall. And rebadged them as they do.

 

my sister had the short and long wheelbase fronteras, both 2.0litre petrol, not the greatest but looked quite nice, was great when the roof was taken off.

They didn't do a lwb in 2.0 only the swb sport. Lwb petrol was 2.4 A series and 2.2 or 3.2 B series.

Must of been the 2.2 then.

So, this announcement comes a week after I finally manage to get myself a Mu. TYPICAL  

Although mine is the first version #58152, on the CC-01 Lowrider chassis.  But if I put the body on my Pajero Metaltop Wide CC-01 chassis I have a Type X    Bonus.
