The Vauxhall Opel Frontera, produced from 1991 to 1998, was a compact sport utility vehicle (SUV) that aimed to capture the growing demand for rugged, versatile vehicles. Sharing its underpinnings with the Isuzu Rodeo, the Frontera offered a choice of petrol or diesel engines, providing decent power and fuel efficiency for its time. The first generation Frontera featured a robust ladder frame chassis, permanent four-wheel drive with a low-range transfer case, and a solid live axle rear suspension for off-road capability. Although not as sophisticated as modern SUVs, the Frontera's off-road performance was respectable, proving to be a capable vehicle for tackling rough terrain. Moreover, its roomy interior and impressive cargo space made it suitable for families and adventure enthusiasts alike.
The Frontera's design was practical and functional, with a boxy exterior, high ground clearance, and a relatively comfortable cabin. It offered features such as power steering, air conditioning, and a cassette player, depending on the trim level. The car's safety features were basic for its time, with front disc brakes and rear drum brakes, but lacking modern safety technology like airbags or ABS. Despite its rugged off-road capabilities, the Frontera was not as refined as its Japanese competitors in terms of handling and ride quality. However, it proved to be reliable and durable, earning a reputation for its straightforward mechanical design and ease of maintenance. The Frontera was a popular choice for those seeking a value-for-money SUV with decent off-road abilities, and its simplicity and ruggedness made it a favorite amongst DIY enthusiasts. The availability of a service and repair manual, such as the one mentioned, would have further enhanced the Frontera's appeal, as it provided owners with the necessary knowledge and guidance for carrying out essential maintenance and repairs.
