02 — The protocol
Four tests. One signed report. Then we ship.
Compression, leak-down, endoscope and oil analysis — signed, dated, archived.
- Compression test (cold + hot, every cylinder)
- Leak-down test (7.5 bar, 90 sec hold)
- Endoscope inspection (HD video archived)
03 — The warranty
Ten months on the inside of the engine.
Cover on internal components when fitted by a professional — no small-print traps.
- Block, head, crankshaft, conrods, pistons, valves, gaskets covered
- Cover starts at first start-up after fitting
- Professional fit required (we recommend partner workshops)
What you actually get.
Registered European company
A real European company. VAT-registered. Audited accounts. If anything goes sideways, EU consumer law sits behind you — not a disclaimer in a footer.
Transparent pricing
One price. Engine, tests, pallet, freight. We don't tack on fees at checkout, and we don't 'find issues' after dispatch.
05 — For pros
For garages and workshops who can't wait a week.
No separate portal and no account signup — one quote request, same flow as a private buyer.
- Same two-step quote form; add company and VAT in step two when you need an invoice

How to read your engine code in two minutes
Every car ships with at least four characters that decide which engine fits. Most owners don't know where to find them. Two minutes to learn.

What bench testing actually tells you

Reconditioned, used or new — the real comparison
A new engine costs as much as a second car. A used engine is a coin toss. Reconditioned sits in between — but only when the workshop documents what they did.
Read the article →How much does a used engine cost?
Our engines run between €1,200 and €4,500 depending on make, motorisation and reference mileage — delivery included. Send us your registration or VIN for a firm quote in under two business hours.
How do I know which engine fits my car?
Enter your registration plate or VIN in the quote form. We confirm compatibility manually before quoting. If we ship the wrong reference, we cover the swap and the transport.
Can I fit the engine myself?
A professional fit is strongly recommended and is what activates the warranty. Experienced fitters with the right tooling can self-install — contact us first to confirm conditions.
What is and isn't included with the engine?
Included: complete block with cylinder head, intake and exhaust manifolds, new gaskets, four-test report. Not included: turbo, injectors, harness, ECU, clutch, flywheel — these transfer from your original or are quoted separately.
