To help me with the Rex-X project I downloaded the GV-Rex-X manual.  As I was working through it I noticed that some of the parts drawings didn't match the parts I had.  I thought that maybe my cars were earlier or later revisions so I had another look online for a different manual.

I came across a Reely Rex-X manual and downloaded it and it looked more fitting to what I had.

During my internet searches I also found a number of other Rex-X's for sale on eBay.  These were listed as GV but the photos looked like the cars I have.

The questions are therefore:

  • Do I have a GV or a Reely car?
  • Are GV & Reely actually the same company (or subsidiaries) operaing in different countries?
  • Is the Rex-X a base model, made by a company that is then sold (with minor differences) by other companies (A bit like the Citroen Berlingo & Peugeot Expert vans)?

If I ever find out the answers I'll post them here.

Anyway, the upshot of it all is the project is progressing well and I have changed the category names on this website from GV Rex-X to just Rex-X.
