We bought some years ago this Greek market RX2 coupe, an originally 12A twin dizzy car. The car was restored but at that time, ignorant of AU and with limited knowledge and sources of parts, the TD engine was not rebuild properly. About 1 year and a half ago a NOS 12A TD was bought, but due to time and mistreatment from the mechanics here, failed. After 8 months of searching for NOS parts, the engine was finally rebuilt sucessfully, and here is the car at one of her first rides.
