axle seal mine has not required anything major

I forgot to add about the abs module, that tends to go bad on this particular vehicle too
I've seen some VX's that are dogs and then some that were really well cared for, to me, it seems this is more evident with VX's than most other cars
Due to some parts issues (trim pieces), I would spend the time to find the best condition VX you can find, even those aren't too expensive

I've got over 110k on mine and I've never done anything really major - just everything you would expect like the timing belt and other scheduled services, and a few unplanned issues like the windows and ABS. I think most vehicles nowadays can easily go to 200k if they're properly maintained, but if you really want something that's super "low maintenance" i suggest looking at diesels. My Jetta TDI gets an oil change every 10k, and needs very little else (except for that expensive tranny service every 40k grrrr!)

Got my VX at 70k and some change, It's clock is at 148k now. Pulled OEM shocks and installed Rancho 9000's, A couple battery's, 2 Fuel pumps ( I just installed a Bosch w/lifetime guarantee, spend alittle extra and get it ) Timing belt at 95k and water pump while I was in there (the original was ok, just alittle PM ) Tweak the right window track and lube both a few times a year, with no major mechanical issue's, I feel I contribute that to this forum and the knowledge of it's members for preventive maintenance issue's. Mainly running pure synthetic fluid everywhere possible which was one of the first things I did 5 years ago and have stuck with ever since.
