Im thinking about buying a inboard motor from them, and looking for references.

Tanks!

Sorry I've no dealings with them though.. I wouldn't put a volvo in though (seriously expensive)  ;).. Vetus or Beta for me (Or Chinese mpower engine).

Hi JawsOrca

 

How did you know i was looking at a VP :), the company is deeling with Yanmar,Vetus as vell..

I've never heard of them and Google is showing some odd results.  The address is a mid terraced house, the one with the black 4x4 outside - https://goo.gl/maps/wJJpKWUYvT22

The website has loads of Volvo Penta pictures but they are most definitely not an authorised dealer. 

If your looking to re-engine your Falcon with a Volvo then try these guys below.  Depending which engine / drive you currently have there may be a re-engine package available.

Beta do not supply stern drive packages and only go to 150hp, Vetus go higher but have to use another manufacturers stern drive (Mercruiser).

The website is plastered with VP pictures, including one which finished production 5 years ago !!

I can put you in touch with a few UK dealers but the exchange rate is not great so you may get a better deal closer to home.

I may be going off at a complete tangent here, but just in case you're looking at ways to re-engine a boat that's already fitted with a volvo penta sterndive,

... there's a company on the south coast called "Lancing Marine" who carry a comprehensive range of parts to adapt a variety of engines to them.

http://www.lancingmarine.com/

Using their conversion kits for example, you can get a marinised Ford diesel complete with VP leg adapter parts for about 4.5k.

Hi 

First tanks for all quick answers , I'm refurbishing a Quayline245, have no engine or stern drive at the moment.

Looking to fit it with D3-200, OR a 5,7-300 engine..not really decided yet..

Searched the internet, and got a hit in England, so thought ill follow it up.

Sorry no good in reading english adresses, but in this adress is the number 43 the house number?

Sorry, searched for 45 for some reason !  43 is the one next door - http://www.cfsformations.com/ 

Still looks a little odd though!

V8-300 is a new engine and will be about £10K retail cheaper than a D3-200 which buys a lot of petrol !

Hi Neil 

Street view was from 2011, do you have any other company, then Google that supplies street view in UK?

 

[SweMathias]

Look in to our links Neil, seem like the company is regesterd to no.45 on Google? but on the home page it says 43?
