Please call for availability before ordering If you need a new engine and you want the ultimate peace of mind, our range of 'New' engines are just what you are looking for. We so confident in the quality, they all come with a 12 month, unlimited mileage warranty. Our 1641cc engines comes with bigger pistons and barrels, which give you a noticeable improvement in performance over a regular 1600cc engine for not much more money. We do reuse some original VW parts, as you'll see from the specification below. This is not a cost cutting exercise, in some cases the original parts are better than the new parts available, it's a simple as that.

All reused original parts are thoroughly tested and checked to be well within manufacturers tolerances. We wouldn't use them if they weren't right.
