Just joined you - anyone have a 'Vigo'?

Geoff B 29 April 2005 17:22:47
 Hello folks,
I just stumbled upon this group and it seems an ideal way to ask a question
. . . .

I've recently become the owner of a new Hi-Lux Vigo, bought and residing in
Thailand. It'll be a few months before I return there and begin acting as
chauffeur for my fiancee and her mother, so I'm still in the dark about how
they drive / handle.

I was wondering is anyone here has experience of this model?

Are there any issues to be aware of? (Thankfully, it came with a very good
warrenty deal, including all servicing and repairs - excuding things I might
break - for 3 years. But it would be useful to know of anything to watch
out for)
It's a 2.5 litre manual transmission "double-cab", if that makes a
difference . . . .

Many thanks, and I look forward to enjoying reading the posts here,

"Bruce L. Bergman" sent a welcoming message:

Thanks Bruce - nice to hit a group where sensible answers are returned!

Yes - although I'm stuck in the (wet and cold) UK, my good lady is making
sure that the motor gets a gentle workout weekly.
I've just had to face a few hundred miles in an estate car (station wagon, I
guess you'd call it), so I've adjusted a bit to the extra length issue . . .
.Also, it was a diesel, so I know now that the old horrors that seem to be
resolved - nicely responsive and all too easily sneaking up to the 100 mph
mark if I didn't pay attention . . . . Ooops - there goes the clean
licence!!

Further info will be gladly received -

Hi guys, I have just come here and saw your q re the Vigo. I have just
put an order in for a Vigo (importing it, as they are not getting here
for another year) and as of yet have not been in one ! I know that
sounds crazy but over here in Ireland Double cabs accross the board
are fairly bad! The new Vigo, replacment for what we called the Hilux,
I hear is much better. Does anyone have any thoughts on what the Vigo
is like allowing for the fact that it is a pick up. Any thoughts would
be great !

Kev,
I don't know if you'd be interested, but I scanned in the Vigo brochure,
and
can send you the .jpg files if you like.
The reply address here goes to a filter account that I check fairly
regularly, so drop me a line to let me know where to send them (4 files).
They'll be in Thai, but you probably have all the specs already.

I do find myself wondering how the price you paid compares with mine . . .
.

Cheers,
