16/09/2007 - The Frontera Owners Group (Midlands Group) have a Pay &
Play day at Farley Quarry. The 2.8 diesel estate performs well all
day. A double run through a clay impregnated water splash, in
quick succession, results in a very soggy air filter and a slight in
gestation of water. The 2,8 splutters and plays up for half an hour,
but is driven home. Following an air filter change, the Estate
returns to the week day commuter run.
