AFAIK these are the same... my question is whether Opel manufactures (or
used to manufacture) Frontera on it's own or outsourced production to Isuzu?

Also, where can I find detailed specs on previous years models?

Thanks!

Neither Opel nor Isuzu manufactured the Fronterra as they are
manufactured in GM/Vauxhall UK. The chassis is locally sourced and
various engines have been used over the years. No doubt components are
bought from far and wide, including Isuzu.

Thanks for the info... didn't know that. Any ideas where I can look up specs
for Rodeo/Frontera 2000?

Frontera is European car... and MSN lists only US models. There are "subtle"
differences such as engines, different tire sizes etc.

The Isuzu Rodeo and the Opel Frontera are not the same vehicle. There are
many differences.

The Isuzu Rodeo and the Honda Passport were exactly the same for many years
but as far as I know that's where it stopped.
