    Congratulations!!! Welcome to the club. There is nothing like owning and driving a VehiCROSS. The thing I still can't get over is the looks this beast gets. It's still fun. I haven't yet gotten any parts, (and I'm at 140K miles) but I need them now. The great thing about this website and these amazing people is that when you need parts, generally someone here can tell you where to get them or how to manufacture them. I don't think you can do any better than to be a part of this group of people. Again, congratulations. You won't regret your purchase or joining this club.

    Great to hear DannyDigital! Yah, another fellow VXer! Congrats!
    I've been annointed as the "Queen of all things ebay" and Director of Procurement & Acquisitions, so if you ever need help finding a part or something, give me a shout, I can usually help!
    It's said that I have special powers when it comes to shopping!

    Post pics when you get your new ride!!!

    Thumbs up Hey Danny !

    Welcome aboard !

    You'll be all but happy to own & drive an VX.

    It's so much fun just looking at people'jaws crashing down trying to figured out where in hell's name that "think" came from.

    1rst think to do is getting acquainted with all & most common issues the VX runs into such as windows binding & most important is keeping the oil level at full level,check your oil at least once an week if you're driving in the city most of the time,but if highways is your way to go here and there check it no less than three times an week.

    Have an full service done as soon you can depending in the current mileage.

    Beside that all i can say is have fun with your new toy buddy.

    Good luck !
    Dakar was just the begining.

    Welcome to the fun. I really can't add anything to what the others have already said except that I'm glad that parts availability didn't scare you away from purchasing. We will try to help you if you are ever in need.

    BTW, Fellow VX enthusiast Merlin at St Charles Isuzu will bend over backwards to help you get parts. His contact info is somewhere here on the site.
