Weasel1984 ◊ 2007-07-18 12:17	UK? Vauxhall Frontera?
DynaMike ◊ 2007-07-18 12:35	This is in Holland, region of Arnhem. Is it a Frontera? Then it has to be an Opel.
Sunbar ◊ 2007-07-18 12:57	Opel Frontera [UT4] (four-door & hatch) almost definitely.
DynaMike ◊ 2007-07-18 12:59	Origin was Japan, no?
Sunbar ◊ 2007-07-18 14:11	Japanese based vehicle engineered for European conditions plus local content and manufactured by IBC Limited (Isuzu Bedford Company Limited) a GM/Isuzu joint venture in Luton, UK. Marketed by Opel Russelsheim Germany. In common with other Opel or Vauxhall models listed as either Germany or UK. -- Last edit: 2007-07-18 16:40:25
Ingo ◊ 2007-07-18 18:45	Am I right, that the Opel 2.0-Diesel-engines are made by Isuzu, too? I've heard that. It shall be different than the 2.4/2.5-version, which originally was constructed by BMW.

More recently (from 2002) GM also owned a majority interest in, or complete ownership of, some of Isuzu's various diesel engine businesses. GM-Europe commonly now use 'Ecotec' Fiat-designed diesels as a result of a GM-Fiat partnership that was recently dissolved. However GM and Fiat continue to jointly own an engine plant in Poland. -- Last edit: 2007-07-18 21:14:01
