I have always liked the look of the VX and I finally bought one last week.Mine is a 99 silver and only has 79k miles.I need to do a few things to fix it up and i am looking forward to searching the forum for advice.I think isuzu makes great suv's and this is our 3rd Isuzu. My wife drives our 98 Rodeo and I could tell form her actions when I brought this VX home that she is hoping to take it over but she is out of luck at least for a while.

Enjoy the ride and don't let your wife have it, (unless you are "in the mood")!

I've had this v-cross for over a year now. Have decided to keep it! - yes, it's magic.
Jap spec model, 1st reg jan 2000 so 1999 model.
Was overtaken by one some time ago and was impressed- was driving a 4l Cherokee at the time, after having an S10 Blazer for many years. Found out what it was and then found this site. It took some time but I eventually managed to buy one. A major op and two major holidays have slowed my response
Ok, it had been messed about with but I love it. Have removed rear seat, fitted Curt tow bar and refinished the mirrors (had fire damage?) but paint hasn't lasted well. Now needs new egr valve , and yes the windows stick. And the previous owner removed the rear shocks and replaced them with something or other. Plus the rear view camera has packed up!! Oh well.....
Think I will stick with it though- it's such fun to drive and nobody knows what it is.

Excellent site, by the way.

I think he may have been making reference to the imfamous missing blue SoCal VX, not knowing the poster was from overseas?
Best,

[cyronman]

Just jumped the gun. Sorry.
Did NOT notice this VX was overseas.
