There are some vehicles that command respect on the roads of Western Australia. They are a perfect blend of tough capability, refined engineering, and undeniable presence.

The first question we always answer is, “Why is it being wrecked?” This 2012 Amarok was deemed a statutory write-off due to a driver-side impact. For a savvy parts buyer, this is excellent news. Our expert assessment, honed by 15 years of experience, confirmed that the damage was contained to one side. This has left the entire passenger side, the front end, the rear, the chassis, and most importantly, all the major mechanical components completely unscathed and in perfect working condition.
Before our technicians laid a single wrench on it, we started and ran the powerful 2.0L twin-turbo engine. It fired up instantly, idled smoothly, and revved cleanly with no smoke, rattles, or hesitation. It’s a testament to Volkswagen’s engineering and the care of its previous owner. This Amarok is a prime candidate for harvesting top-tier mechanical and cosmetic parts.

The TDI Powertrain: Power and Reliability
The heart of this Amarok is its sought-after 2.0L Twin-Turbo Diesel engine, the TDI400. This Bi-Turbo setup is renowned for its impressive torque and smooth power delivery. With a healthy 188,450 km on the clock, this engine is barely broken in for a diesel of this quality. It’s a strong, reliable runner, ready to be the new heart of your ute. We have the complete engine assembly available, along with all its essential accessories, including:

Paired with this engine is the robust 6-Speed Manual Gearbox and the legendary 4MOTION Selectable 4×4 Drivetrain. We’ve tested the system, and it engages perfectly. The complete drivetrain is available, including the transfer case, front and rear differentials, and drive shafts. If you’re having issues with your 4×4 system, this is an incredible opportunity to get genuine VW parts at a price that won’t break the bank.
The Exterior: Clean White Panels and Accessories
The Candy White paint on this Amarok is bright and clean. Because the damage was on the driver’s side, we have a fantastic selection of undamaged panels ready to bolt straight onto your ute. This is the perfect solution for repairing minor accidents or cosmetic damage without the high cost of panel beating and respraying.

The interior is in great shape and offers a fantastic opportunity to upgrade or replace worn-out components in your own vehicle.
