|
|
I have seen the company in Heathrow mentioned a few times in relation to replacement engines but not sure if anyone here has actually used them .
They are quoting the same as my local garage , but the local garage is quoting for second hand engine and heathrow price is for a recon .
Has anyone had any dealings ? And were they any good ?
Cheers |

I remember them on watchdog, don't touch them with a bargepole, nasty and threatening with it. |

I am looking for a 2.8 turbo diesel .
Have seen them on that site with a company called iezura .
Can only find one complaint on google and that seems a rather flimsy link to another company .
Their feedback is 99.7 positive .
Anyone had any dealings with them , or any other suggestions ?
I also have just aquired a jack russell (happiness ? are you sure )

I have used this guy a few times now for parts. I found them pretty good. Parts are first class so far. :D
They sent the wrong item once, but had it collected and credited my account straight away, so would not hesitate to ask them for a price on other parts.
But remember, engines can go, even if the gaurantee is honoured, its a pain in the ass for all concerned.
Sometimes its better to rebuild/repair the original, if not too expensive!! ?
