How does Burton 2CV Parts guarantee the best quality?

What can you adjust on the dyno?

In our recondition workshop we have our own dyno at our disposal. On the dyno we can adjust the engine and carburettor of your car optimally that the ratio between air and fuel is optimal.

During the summer season, we organise a regular dyno day every 1st Saturday of the month. You can register for this day, there is a maximum of 4 places available.

Send an Email to [email protected] with the subject "dyno", and we will take care of your request.

We have bulk contracts with some regular carriers, therefore it is not possible to make your own choice. Within the EU we ship with DPD, outside the EU we ship with Fedex, TNT or PostNL.

Why do I have to pay a deposit for some products?

Some of the products in our range have a deposit part attached to them. We would like to receive this deposit part because we use it for parts during the reconditioning of the purchased product. By using deposit parts, we can continue to overhaul products and make them like new again. Without these parts, we would not have sufficient supply to meet the demand for reconditioned parts.

How much time do I have to return a deposit part?

The period for returning the deposit is 2 months. After that time, we will no longer process a returned deposit item.

Which parts have a deposit part?

All reconditioned parts have a deposit part. In the Webshop, this is described in the explanation of the article. In the shopping cart the deposit amount is automatically added, so it is visible to you as a customer there as well. Click here for more information about deposit parts and the reconditioning process.

Do you also buy parts that you consider to be deposit parts?

Yes, we do. We are always looking for lots of old parts. Think of the engine, gearbox, crankshaft, camshaft, cylinder head, carburettor, front axle, rear axle, etcetera. Do you have a batch for sale? Please send an email to [email protected] for the attention of Nico Wassenaar. Nico will contact you to make an appointment.

Do I have to pay the return costs myself?

In case of a warranty claim, the return costs are of course for the account of Burton Car Company. A wrongly ordered article can of course be returned, but keep in mind that we do not reimburse the shipping costs of the return.

Do you also ship internationally?

Yes, we ship to anywhere in the world at set rates. Click here for an up-to-date overview of the prices.
