Morning All, :WaveBye

Just bought one of these on a bit of a whim.... Curious car, fabulous looking, even the Mrs likes it! Very small too, nice and compact. I like the noise it makes and the way it goes too:3gears-rh

Can\'t say I\'m impressed with the blind person with no thumbs I assume must have put the interior together though...

Anyway, it\'s too low at the moment and I can\'t even get it to my house so it\'s getting coilovers, some new wheels and a complete check out at Reworx very soon.

Bonnet doesn\'t fit either.... lol

Anyway, Hi, I\'ll be round here seeking advice.

Cheers,

James

does look pretty mean that low, but I know what you mean by too low, mine was on the floor orginally but after 2 fduked front bumpers I got coilovers and raised it lol

Yeah mine was low when I got it, could hardly put my foot under the front splitter. But it definitely looked cool.

Nice looking car you have there.

Welcome to MRC, James. looks very nice sat in the weeds like that, but not tooo practical, I guess :Giggle. Nice to see another Rex owner in Darkest Worthing, whereabouts are you at?

Mine is proabably just as low as that and they do look great. Bit of an arse getting in and out of though :rollin

Welcome to MRC James,

Your obviously not impressed with the interior but it\'s a good looking car on the outside,

Have fun out there.

Yeh, it looks cool, I\'ve had a lower E30 BM than that and a VW that couldn\'t get over a fag packet but it was when I took a detour round Henley and ended up pushing all the stones from the middle of the road along that I thought maybe raising it might help...... lol

There\'s a white FD at the end of my road, usually under cover but I notice the cover has come off this week, common as muck!

Thanks,

I wasn\'t expecting much and I think mine\'s had a hard life!

I shall remedy it slowly.

Yeah, the paint on the plastics does tend to peel and form some kid of mutation on it. But a little sanding painting etc and it can be as you like. car does look good that low, but impractical.. Good luck
