transitpartsuk, brand new engine

Postby knighty1981 » Tue Jun 30, 2015 4:15 pm

need a new engine for my mk7 2.4 rwd (100ps, 2007)

looking at the price of a used engine of unknown quality £1000+

and a recon engine £1500+
(and they won't accept my old engine as a return because there's a hole in the block)

figured I might as well get a new engine... that van does ~75k a year so I should get my monies worth out of it

that look ok to everyone ?

(just checking before I bank transfer 2k+vat)

2K doesn't sound bad for a new genuine article, I paid £1200+VAT for a Focus TDDi nearly 10 years ago :mrgreen:

They still wanted the old one back though :?
