Description
Used Mini Petrol Engine – 1.6L W10 (Second Hand)
We are offering a workshop-tested second hand W10 engine, a 1.6L naturally aspirated petrol engine used in the Mini Cooper R50 models. Built by Tritec, the W10 engine was the power unit in the first-generation BMW Mini lineup and is well-known for its solid performance and straightforward design.
Whether you’re restoring a classic Mini Cooper R50 or replacing a tired engine, the W10 engine provides a reliable and budget-friendly solution. Its mechanical simplicity makes it easy to work on, and parts availability is still good across South Africa.
Our W10 engines are sourced from both accident-damaged and running Mini Coopers. Each unit is compression tested and inspected by our in-house team. We only list engines that meet our standards and are suitable for reuse, ensuring you get value and peace of mind with your purchase.
