Frontera total waste of metal stay well clear.
I'm running a 300 tdi disco at the moment and had it in some funny places and never been stuck (yet pmsl). The disco is prone to tin worm but easy to work on.
I can get 37mpg out of mine if driver like an old fart (60 on m-way).
Another great we offroader is the suzuki jimny seen these used a fair bit on the pheasant shooting.
We had a race up a steep muddy hill in January this year with a selection of 4x4's (disco's 1,2,3,4 rangies x3, jimnys x4, defenders x2 and a fiat panda 4x4 )and the panda won everyone else kept sliding

Totally agree with hoofing it....Disco's are the best offroaders out there.. I`ve got a 300tdi now as well and to be honest i wouldnt swop it for the world it just goes on and on...And if the impossible happens and i win the lotto, i think a complete restoration would be in order for the old girl....... :y
