Fully Tested Used and Reconditioned Engines with up to 12 months Warranty

Replacing the failed engine in your vehicle through a dealership can cost you a fortune. However, at Apex Engines, we offer a smarter and more affordable alternative with used engines in the UK that are fully tested and cover a wide range of vehicles. We have teams of technicians who source low mileage engines from reputable engine suppliers and test them thoroughly in our facility to ensure performance and durability.

We have such confidence in our tested engines that the warranty backs every engine we provide. We offer a warranty of up to 12 months, depending on the condition of the engine and the work carried out. Whether you are a car owner, mechanic, or garage owner, our tested engines can be delivered to your specified destination to ensure you receive the right engine as quickly as possible, providing dependable performance without the premium price tag.

Used Vs Reconditioned Engine: Which is Better?

For someone looking for a replacement engine, it is common to see the term used engine and reconditioned engine. Understanding the difference between the two can help you choose the most suitable and cost effective solution for your vehicle.

A used engine is typically removed from a donor vehicle, often one that has been written off due to body damage rather than mechanical failure. Our team of technicians carefully examines the engines and brings them to our facility, where further testing is carried out to verify mileage, compression testing and essential checks. A used engine is the most budget friendly option for drivers looking to get their vehicle back on the road as quickly as possible.

On the other hand, if you have sufficient funding and want a long term solution, then a reconditioned engine is what you should aim for. We choose a low mileage engine and strip it down to the block, clean it and machine it if necessary and then rebuild the engine using OEM quality components where necessary. We ensure that the parts, such as bearings, gaskets, seals, and timing components, are often replaced to restore the engine close to its original specifications. A thorough testing follows, and the engine reconditioned by our experts is as good as new when it comes to performance and reliability.

While both engine replacement options are designed to save you a significant amount of money, it depends mainly on your intent to use the vehicle in the future. When you are looking for a quick fix for your vehicle, a used engine is cost effective and works well for a short period. A reconditioned engine, on the other hand, is suitable if you are planning to keep your vehicle for a prolonged period. It provides enhanced reliability and often comes with better warranty coverage due to the extensive rebuild process.

How Do We Supply the Most Reliable Engines and What Sort of Engines Do We Supply?

Our 25 years of experience have enabled us to devise a clear and reliable process to ensure every customer receives the correct replacement engine for their vehicle.

We ensure the engine we are providing meets the correct engine code and manufacturer requirements before selling it to you. Every engine we provide goes through various tests and is supplied with a warranty to ensure reliability and peace of mind.

We supply used and reconditioned replacement engines for a wide range of popular vehicles across the UK. Our stock regularly includes engines for manufacturers such as Hyundai, Kia, MINI, Jaguar, Land Rover, and Range Rover, covering many petrol and diesel variants. By covering those leading brands and engine types, we are able to provide reliable engine solutions that eventually help drivers and garages find the right engine quickly and affordably.

What Problems Prompt Engine Replacement?

Engine replacement is a major job and is only suggested when serious internal damage makes repairing an engine impractical or uneconomical. The usual suspects include engine knocking caused by worn internal components, spun bearings, timing chain failure, and severe overheating damage. Other issues include cracked cylinder head, piston failure, oil starvation or complete engine seizure, which can affect multiple components at once.

In many cases, the cost of stripping, diagnosing, machining, and rebuilding all the damaged parts can quickly exceed the price of a quality used or reconditioned replacement engine. For this reason, many vehicle owners and garages choose engine replacement as a faster, more reliable, and often more cost-effective way to restore the vehicle to full working condition.
