Welcome.

I wish broken bones and chronic backache upon the mouthbreathers who stole your car. That sucks really hard. My dad's beloved ol' Toyota pickup was stolen out of his driveway one year, he was pretty annoyed for a good long while.

On the other hand, kudos on discovering an unmolested VX. That doesn't happen too often. It's kind of the Holy Grail among non-hybrid gas cars for fuel mileage.

Unless you have a receipt on hand that you trust, indicating how old the timing belt is, consider replacing it. I don't reckon you need me to tell you that, but it bears repeating.
