Question : extract element from string

I would like to extract the drive type from a client string and return that as a string

so here follows client input strings and required output

300E SUV 4X4 result = 4x4
300E SUV 4 X 4 result = 4x4
300E SUV 2 X 2 result = 2x2
300E SUV 2X2 result = 2x2
300E SUV 2X4 result = 2x4 and so on

Function GetDrive(ClientStr As Variant) As Variant
Dim regex As Object
Dim match As Object

    Set regex = CreateObject("vbscript.regexp")
    'filter for numerals and "d separated by space"
    regex.Pattern = "[0-9]+ X + [0-9]"

    'turn off case
    regex.IgnoreCase = True
    'create object

    Set match = regex.Execute(ClientStr)
    'set or get value
    If match.Count > 0 Then GetDrive = Trim(Val(match(0)))
    'kill object
    Set regex = Nothing
End Function
