The replacement for my 6

**Davidos12** · 5-1-08, 17:32

Oh well as I'm a sad ex owner I thought i'd put up a pic of the 6's replacement, as you can understand I'm a little upset and delicate right now

Sport my Ar*e, about as sporty as me and i'm 19 stone

Tough looking - good for towing, say, a Jetski? Or are the roads that bad where you are that you need an off-roader?

Hi Jester, recently got made redundant and bought a catering trailer to set myself up in business so need this heap of junk to tow it. 6 had to go to pay for it

Don't worry Dave, if your catering pitch is good, you'll be driving round in a Noble M12 within 12 months.

They all seem to do really well in this neck of the woods.

My friend bought a frontera sport a couple of years ago as he couldnt get all his fishing kit in his Astra.

The car was tough as nails but the fuel economy was brutal, worse than an mx6.

Like you Dave, i'm not sure the words "Frontera" and "sport" should be used in the same sentance but I cant see Vauxhall doing a "Frontera Sluggish"

Still handle like a bus though but nice idea. Probably be able to stick the vectra v6 engine in it.

Welcome to the ex owners club! I miss my six

I now have a Primera.

Once things settle down and I've wedded, moved to Southampton and got a job. Then I can think about having a six again. Might have to wait 12mnths but I will be back!
