Iv bought the engine £900 vat inc and delivery inc, just need someone to fit it! I’m gona sell it when it’s fitted! But I will expect more 19k new engine and a 14plate 1.5 a class!? Iv tang merc garage speaking to someone Monday if as a good will gesture they will do some deal with me
If it had full MB history and serviced on time you may have a chance. If the last service was at a VAT reg garage using MB parts you may still have a chance but it's slim. Goodwill would normally means they will do the work at a reduced rate or F.O.C. depending on the circumstances. They will not fit a second hand engine for you and I doubt they will contribute to it.
Re the engine swap, yes it only has 19k but it doesn't look good on a 5 year old car IMO. I don't think it is worth a huge premium
