Advice please - purchase of a reconditioned engine

[subheatadey]

Hi Guys, my engine is fubared and I am in need of a engine ASAP as i use it for work I think a new engine may be out of my credit limited so another option is looking at companies that supply reconditioned engines and i was hoping for your views of who I should get in contact with? Many thanks.

Be very careful, examine the quality and the components used as well as the company you choose. Dont juts compare Price, there is a massive variance in Quality and components used.

We do a Reman 1600cc TP for £1695 Inc Vat Retail, ALL Forum member will get a 5% discount.

As Alex has said be very careful who you pick to buy a recon engine from.

Have a search, plenty of threads here to help you choose.

In the end I thought bollocks to it it's only money :shock: so I bought a new engine off Alex, as usual he was more than helpful. Cheers Alex

It should turn up on Wednesday so depending on work it may just be doable?
