At last my Rex is home after ported rebuild and exedy clutch, feel like a proper MEMBER:D of the club again. 400 miles into running it in now, a little oil leak from the sump area, is this usual? Ross is going to have a look at the 1000 mile mark. Had the Dragons head added to the side, I know it is not everyones cup of tea but i really like it.
Big shout out to Ross at Dragons, was really helpful, his workshop is like an aladins cave with so many nice shiny things just kickin around.
The matt black rex pictures do not do it justice, in the flesh it is awesome and so mean looking. (Ask if he would swap, but for somwe reason he said NO).

Hopefully will have some trouble free motoring now, after new engine, rear diff, new suspension and spings new wheels, the cost of owning a rex is mounting up!

V Nice. Like mine but in Silver. The Veilside nose is cool.
Did i see you driving to through Oxford on the A420 on Tuesday morning?? I swear i saw a car that looked like mine, even with the dragons on the arches, but i could not believe it at the time?
Cheers

You prob had a chat with Carlos at Pod a few months ago. I bought the car from him quite recently. I was there at thr POD as well though.
The dragons do look cool, but everyone in my office thinks they looking like a Chavs work. BUT THEN THEY ALL DRIVE BMW\'S.

R thats cool, I did see the for sale sign on your RX at the pod, mine was at dragons at the time. I know it looks a bit chev, but I do not really care, it still not a nova or corsa! And it is still one cool car!

Oh i dont worry. Just some people do not understand the diff between a modded FD, and a corsa. But as i said they all have company cars.
Where did you get the no plate? I need something on the front of mine to keep the polis at bay.

Lovely motor, i shall look out for it.
I hope you have a garage and good security, you dont want to leave a car like that parked up in Milton Keynes.
Ive passed a dark grey? skyline a couple of times recently on the H3 in my Alfa 156, i thought the driver would think i was trying to race and leave me in a cloud of dust but he didnt.
