This is from their website.

If only people would Google prior to using a company ... this thread is the #1 result.0

I'm not digging but highlighting this company and the way it operates as well as its practice it has to attempt subduing comments about its self in popular medias.
This company is conning people every day and getting away with it. Others need to know by people like myself creating a base that was previously unsearchable with information about this company and its tactics.
If similar had happened to you it’s likely you would appreciate these posts, obviously they haven’t and you feel uninterested so you have a choice to go elsewhere and read something you can relate too.0 -
They do all they can to suppress any info about them by contacting the medias or individuals advertising their bad service with solicitors and requesting the information is removed. Read my post on the 24nd February to see a version of this.0

If I could give this company a minus I would.
I ordered an engine from this company after reading a few reviews they seemed ok and chatting on the phone all seemed well. I received the engine and all looked good.
I fitted the engine and all went well started it and it fired up and sat there ticking over nicely. That's where the problems started. It wouldn't rev about 1600rpm and no matter what I did it still wouldn't. I put it to my local garage and they tried £4500 later and they STILL couldn't find the problem after changing everything that could be changed. I had to get a secondhand engine engine and first that. And now it runs ok.
I called Engineered Engines and informed them of the problems and asked them to send another engine and they wouldn't, and said to me " do you want a warranty form or not?" To which I still haven't received a warranty form. I also haven't received the surcharge back and they got my old engine in January. I have called them, emailed them and I have not received anything from them.
PLEASE, PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY AND BEING IN SCOTLAND MAKES IT AWKWARD TO TAKE LEGAL ACTION & EXPENSIVE!!!0 -
Engineered Engines at Paisley!!
I have read a few stories about this scandalous company from a few years ago. I just thought I would let you know they are still operating and scamming people out of money.
I am just one customer that has been scammed out of money, which I am currently still fighting to get back.
My story briefly:-
October 2018.
I was looking for a reconditioned engine for my vehicle. Engineered Engines had one on the shelf ready to go! I confirmed numerous times that the engine had to have a engine code of 8104.27. They confirmed it was the exact same engine and could be sent next day delivery.
3rd October 2018. Paid by bank transfer £1692. This was for a reconditioned engine and a surcharge £400 for my old engine.
Engine not received. Had to ring to chase, Gregg the customer advisor was very rude to me and even put the phone down on me on one occasion. I was told it was dispatched 10th October.
18th October. Finally recieved engine. It was the wrong engine! Rang and told "Gregg".
He told me to send my old engine and the incorrect engine back to them.
I refused due to the poor customer service, it took them over two weeks for me to get an "off the shelf" product, and I knew they was trying to scam me. Delivery was conveniently 14days after the order date, and you have to cancel within 14 days!
Rang every day for a week to ask where my refund was. Told so many different excuses... Have I completed a cancellation form? (wasn't asked to, but I completed and returned the same day they emailed me one). I needed to contact accounts, but they haven't got a phone? Last phone call I was told "Take us to court".
Then the next stage....court.....I made a claim.
I had to wait until the day before the deadline for Engineered Engines to respond to the claim, they refused to refund me as I hadn't cancelled the order in time?! The Sherriff then suggested mediation, I complied and they didn't. The latest development is that the case has been restarted, not sure why! The Sherriff advised me to contact them and ask for a resolution, which of course I did. I am now awaiting a court case which I shall attend by video link on 23rd October 2019.
I ring the court regular for updates and even the receptionist said "Oh have they done it again!"
This company is disgusting and scams innocent people out of money. I do not think I will see a penny of my money. I can not afford to loose a fiver never mind £1692.
I won't bombard you with all the details of my life story but all I have wanted to do was get a motorhome (the vehicle the engine was for) to make some happy times for my children after a really horrible childhood they suffered. We lived in hell for 7 years and I lost everything, my home, car, all my possession's, money, family etc. Then this company does this. They really do need stopping.0
