About Us

Rix Engineering (Harleston) Ltd, a family run business, was established in 1987. Since then, we have built a reputation around the world for manufacturing and developing quality components specialising in the Ford Escort MK1 & MK2 Group 4 rally cars, allowing these iconic cars to compete on some of the toughest events. This vast range can be purchased via one of our many stockists across the UK.

Over the years we have been able to problem solve, modify and enhance changes on a wide range of vehicles, from standard road cars to purpose-built race and rally cars.

Due to manufacturing almost all our products in house, we have an engineering workshop and workforce capable of taking on any engineering work.
