    Welcome AussieVX.
    Good to know another Aussie is lurking on this site.
    If you ever come to Tassie, let me know.
    Would love to see a few VX's trundling down the street.

    Hello everyone, I am the happy owner of a 99 Ironman as the name implies.

    I first saw the VX at the movie theaters in the movie "mission to mars" oh so many years ago. I went home looked up the weird vehicle I saw on the big screen, fell in love with it and I decided then that I must own one.
    I was 16 or 17 at that time so I wasn't going to be buying one any time soon. 7 years later (I bought it at the end of 07) I found my self in the position to finally buy the car of my dreams. I found mine for $9800 with 94k miles at a small dealership in New Braunfels, TX. I drove it once, and I was not disappointed in any way.

    I look forward to spending time on this online VX community to talk more about our experiences with this amazing Vehicle…

    HELLO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I'm James from London, UK. I bumped into a picture of a vehicross when looking for a v8 defender as a fun run around and weekend of roader, i must say i relly like it and i'm looking to buy one now.

    I would worry about parts though as its only an import here, is it right that they are trooper based? and therfore parts are the same? what about running gear / electrical components? Also any thing to watch out for when looking at a second hand one, mileage etc?

    Hope my sig is ok? i imported it from another forum i use, if its too big let me know!

    Oh and i need to find somwhere to get a suspension lift and some BIG matt black wheels from as soon as i purchase one

    THanks !!

    Hi James,

    Welcome to the forum! If you use the search function, I think you will find all the info you need. There are a lot of things to look for when buying used, and the parts question always comes up as well.

    It is a little on the big and obnoxious side... But cool, my brother has a Z.

    Hay, nice Z crotchrocket. They’re pretty common here in the US, but I don’t think there’s very many in the UK. It look’s really good. You’re a perfect candidate for a VX if you can keep a 300ZX TT looking that awesome. You’re right the VX shares a lot of parts with the trooper, and it shares a designer with the 350Z.
