Hi - its a 3.2 v6 - 215 bHP - not a 3.5 - - constant 4wd or 2 wd you can select either -- blah blah - you need more info about it to attract a buyer -
when was the cambelt done - does the air con work - last service (3000 mile interval for oil changes ) make sure people understand its right hand drive JDM - a Jap import - fully galvanised chassis etc

Uh... it's LHD not RHD and I'm pretty sure it's a 99 Astral US model. Note that the amber markers are on the front fenders rather than lower between the fender cladding and door. Those are tell tale signs of a US model.

The original poster is from the UK with a RHD JDM VX, no link in this thread. Someone jacked the thread with their VX on eBay from Cali instead of starting their own for sale thread.

I believe the old 3.2L had 190 HP and a '98+ 3.2L had 205 HP. Only the 3.5L had 215 HP.

Here's a link for the UK RHD from dickyq-

You're right Mark, I literally just found the CL ad. What a douche to insert his own ad in someone else's FS thread. :rolleyes:

Hi the JDM VX is 215 BHP - the same as the 3.5 - reason being they are designed to run on 99 ron - super unleaded -

Well duh, that's why porn is so popular for shy guys.

I'll buy you a beer the next time I'm in LA.

sorry all had to relist the vx due to the fact that i'd spelt the title wrong(vehicoss not vehicross)so i think it was hard for people to find, so its back on under the right spelling,what a school boy error.......

Item number: 260865907880, sorry not sure how to do the link

I waited, I really did. Unfortunately I needed something in a hurry having spent several weeks failing to cure a misfire on my runabout Golf. The gods saw fit to show me a Jeep Grand Cherokee at my weakest moment and not being able to uget to work on public transport I caved in and bought it.

Sorry dickyq :wtfb2:

As an aside, if anyone wants a Mk3 Golf GTi all new ignition, air and fuel bits let me know. Personally I'd torch the b*stard thing but then I just spent several hundred pounds and a couple of months on it :madb:

If I stripped off the parts I'd fitted trying to trace this misfire, sold them and let you keep all the insurance money we'd both get about the same :embarasse
