2001 Black VX with only 28K miles on Ebay

[rickshaw]

Hey Snowtrooper,
That mileage was back June, now it's at 29,587. Almost time for it's 30k service.
How is the snow up there in Mammoth?


Hey TheGanzman,
We could use another member in Orange County.

Low mileage VX's are getting harder to come by. This one on ebay may be the one for you. I do see something wrong with the drivers side door handle. It looks like to me it has repair tape on it. A new door handle will run you about $56. I know with the mileage I have on mine the original tires are about done, their down to the wear indicators. Other than that, this is a super clean VX.

I REALLY REALLY want that VX; alas, I need to hold off just alittle longer before pulling the trigger on one. I've talked to the dealership - they're good guys. No DOUBT in my mind that this one will go for good $ - I wish the economy wasn't in the tank so bad. I've got a client who owes me over $7K on a guitar authentication/travel I did back in November (I usually do C.O.D. - my bad that I didn't this time - repeat customer lulled me into complacency) - that's what's holding me up. Very real possibility that I'll get STIFFED instead of SPIFFED on this one...

I hope someone here on the Forum gets it; then I can talk him/her OUT of it in a few months!

I'd actually feel bad for sharing how much I paid. I work for a private company that has a relationship with Toyota. I got the fever Christmas day when I was searching on eBay (actually wanted one since they came out in 99). I called first thing Friday morning the 26th to discuss a deal. I explained where I work, made an offer, and was told they would likely accept. I tried to make a deposit over the phone but they couldn't take it. I setup an appointment to go test-drive that evening, and buy the vehicle (this was all yesterday btw).

Around 3:30 on the 26th, I got a call that another sales man had already sold he vehicle for their asking price on the lot. SUPER DISAPPOINTED. Though about it last night and realized it wasn't meant to be...I could just dump more money into my off-road toy that I've been working on for two years....

Then today, after getting in from buying more parts for this off-road toy I've been working on, I get a call that the deal fell through, and the guy couldn't get financed. I cancelled my evening plans, and drove 1 hour to buy it.

There are several minor issues I will be posting about inquiring on how to fix, but overall, I'm super happy with the vehicle....and I probably paid less than anyone would want to believe.

So........ is this other off road toy you have, an Isuzu MU??

Looks like one lurking in the background of your photo.

I actually progressed from an MU to my VX.
Quite a leap forward in comfort and sportiness.
Quite a leap backwards in fuel consumption - but who cares!!!!!!!:bwgr::bgwp:

yeah. i flipped it when it was originally a suzuki sidekick and had to swim out.
now it has the body of the 'mu' or amigo. has full hydro steering, 4.3L vortec motor, turbo 350 tranny, NP205 transfer case, toyota axles etc.....just ordered springs front and rear, and a set of Corbeau seats. The roll cage is next, paint everything (about 50 hours in the one off bumper fabs) and install the winch. Have to figure out a way to do the 5 point harnesses since the cage will be exo...and so the list goes on.

Hopefully, it will be done by this summer. Had the dash pulled this weekend... It is for off-roading only, but will be as nice as anything I have.

Btw, this VX is an impressive vehicle !!! Glad I found this forum.

What a nice truck. I wanted black and looked for one for several months before settling on my second choice PROTON YELLOW. I love the yellow but its more difficult to fix it up to look like Batman's second ride.

Funny you should say that, a bunch of kids on bicycles told me in a parking lot one day that my VX looks like Batman's Tumbler...
