Our approach

We fix the cause.

Every engine that comes into our workshop is stripped, cleaned, inspected and measured to establish the exact cause and extent of failure.

Rather than simply replacing damaged parts, we fix the underlying problem and rebuild each engine to the right tolerances, with the correct machining processes and components for long-term reliability.

We’ve been using Heritage Performance for a considerable amount of our engine work, particularly on commercial vehicles including Ford Rangers and VW Crafters, and the service has been excellent throughout.

As a garage ourselves, it’s important that we can trust the companies we work alongside, and Heritage Performance have consistently delivered. Their communication is clear, turnaround times are realistic, and the quality of workmanship has been first class.

They’ve helped us get numerous customer vehicles back on the road, often taking on complex engine rebuilds that many workshops simply wouldn’t want to tackle. Every vehicle we’ve sent over has been handled professionally, and our customers have always been pleased with the outcome.

It’s refreshing to deal with a company that genuinely cares about doing the job properly rather than taking shortcuts. We have no hesitation in recommending Heritage Performance to both trade customers and members of the public, and we look forward to continuing to work with them in the future.

A reliable, knowledgeable and professional team from start to finish.

Just had my Range Rover 3.0 SDV6 Rebuilt and Reconditoned from Heritage, and I must say the level or service from start to finish has been phenomenal! These guys actually came to the rescue after my car was sat in a garage court in Derby for around 4 Months with no work being done it. They came and collected my car the same day I rang them with no quarms and the stated time on Thursday, the car was then stripped down by the following Wednesday with a full diagnostic report with pictures of the significant damage caused by my engine failure. Following this a precise breakdown of cost for parts required with pricing was provided, to which I agreed and the work to rebuild commenced. The engine was completely stripped and all components cleaned and anything salvage was machined and restored to factory specification. I had regular updates with further photos of the progression and the option to inspect the work being done on my vehicle at ant time given. The work was all completed within a matter of weeks and the car drives absolutely awesome! I would highly MORE THAN RECOMMEND THESE GUYS for any work required on your vehicle, as they most definitely know what they are doing and I will 100% be using them again in the future!

Just for context, I live in Derby and had a lot of time to shop around, ( and I will happily drive back to them) and believe me when I say these guys will not be beaten on price for the high level of quality and workmanship they provide.

I was recommended to this garage by a local motor factor. I sent my Range Rover in for an engine rebuild after my head gaskets failed on it. I dealt with Jack initially and I was taken care of right away. The price did go up slightly due to it needing heads, but a fantastic job nonetheless. Thank you guys 👍
