And do you have any of the press kits from the launch?


No i don't, the other thing i missed out on in 2006 when foxy was selling them was the plastic colour chosing cars. there were a few kits sent to each of the VX220 dealers when they were first apointed. There was an individual plastic shape for each colour. NA only IIRC.


To be fair I'm not sure if I've ever seen an N/A press kit. I've only got the inferior Turbo one...

Given the dealer and VXL views of the VX, i expect as much as possible has been thrown away.

Hmm, I could easily get slicks to fit a set of 15's!! We're they expensive? How wide are they?


Not very, designed for 185 tyres. :D :lol:

I've got most things i think:
-The book
-All the sizes of model including one painted black :P
-The pedal car (by far and way the best)
-Most of the broshures of the time
-Most of the magazines of the time
And a whole collection of bits like this stupid wheel :rolleyes:


you mean the special edition VX220 hose reel , with a suitable hub you might be able to wall mount it

Painted window surround also.
There was a pre production model between concept and final used for marketing purposes, where the final model was slightly different.
Hence early dealer material being slightly off.
