However they did change the cambelt, idlers, tensioner and waterpump for just over cost price of the parts which was good.

Was it a rebuilt engine or just taken out of a crashed car and delivered?

As a breaker I wouldn't have any hesitation buying from them, but I wouldn't let them work on my car, or rebuild an engine I was going to put in it..
