A contractor buddy of mine had a smaller rexxon 10inch saw. It was a great
little saw, don't have any clue what model number. His saw was lighter than
most contractor saws, but much better than any benchtop. It was direct
drive, but nearly as smooth as a belt driven (as a matter of fact, the
smoothest direct drive I have ever seen) and quiet. Seemed well built, but
it was an old tube style fence. He still uses it today, and I think he
found it in a pawn shop for around $70.

When I first saw his saw several years ago, I tried to look for info. There
was nothing. Haven't looked since.

If at first you do succeed, try and hide your astonishment.

FWIW, I have a Rexon drill press. It's painted black and says Crapsman on
the cover. I'm happy to own it.

549 GBP seems about the going rate, with Screwfix having the advantage of
free delivery. A Google search on "Rexon ST2500A" gets about 20 hits.
Watch out, though - some of the sites found are confusing the ST2500A with
the cheaper and less capable BT2500A, so if you see a "bargain" at around
250GBP, check the specs.
FWIW, I have a Rexon Dust Extractor. Good solid robust piece of kit.
