RX Motors are a good place, they\'ve done everything on my car - they aren\'t in Bristol though its actually near Blandford Forum. I can get the low down on the car when I speak to them next week if you want?

RX motors are very highly regarded mate! I believe they are the longest established rotary specialist in the country! Tim, who owns it defo knows his stuff!

hi im going up saturday to have a look at it. if it is possible for you to meet up and have a look at it that would be great. no prop if you cant, what should i ask him to see is it prof of engine rebuild and a pressure test of the engine after it was rebuilt. is there anything else i need to ask to see?

Proof of a rebuild is what you wanna see mate, i don\'t think they will have bothered compression testing a newly rebuilt engine so i wouldn\'t worry too much about that.
Have you spoke to Tim @ RX motors about the car?
What time you goin up there Mate? I\'m goin to a local dyno day tomorrow so if i\'m finished in time then i\'ll come along.
Is the car back with them today?

yeah it is there now he said. i was going to go up quite early get there for about mid day to about one oclock. no prob if you cant make it. is the place easy to find? yeah i spoke to the bloke at awesome inports and he said the water seals had gone. i asked him about the tips and he said that the bloke at rx motors would not leave anything that looked worn. the bloke also said he had receipts for the rebuild so i cant find out what else they done from there can i
