Hey, Me and my fella are currently looking at buying a VX220 so thought a good place to start would be here! We both have a long history of cars, and currently own a RX7, a Cupra K1, Sierra Sapphire Cosworth RS, The K1 has just been sold so need to get a replacement :) Thanks Sarah & Casper

I presume you'll be looking for a turbo going by your current cars?

Welcome to the club, lots of info here, with good advice for buying a VX. Quite a few good ones for sale currently. What are you after tubby or Na , tracking etc ? Seen... "We are looking for a vx220 n/a or turbo under 60k in blue, black or yellow. Budget upto 10k"

Welcome. Hope you find what you are looking for. I am like you and have a long list of fast cars that I have owned. I searched for a long time and eventually bought mine from the lotus dealer in Leicester. If you get one I hope to see you driving it about in it around Leicester.

No, not met before. Had the VX for 5 months. Look forward to getting on some meets. Not sure if there are many other VX owners from Leicester? I am from Rutland water.

at least another 5 of us in and around leicester but if you live Rutland water might be an option to come over your way on a dry day ?or there is generally the midlands meet on the first Sunday of each month over Warwick way just a pub meet have a chat a drink and food if you want
Sometimes a good turnout but like always really depends if its nice weather or British weather 😃
