We are the Commercial Vehicle Diesel Engine Reconditioning and Engine Rebuilds specialists, particularly for the Bus and Coach industries

Foxwood Diesel (formerly known as Foxwood Boring and Grinding Ltd.) was founded in May 1988. It was originally located near Chesterfield at a 3,000 sq. ft. site at Foxwood Road in Sheepbridge, which gave the company its name, which has remained to this day. In December 1994, the company relocated to its present site, significantly larger at 5,000 sq. ft, on Whitting Valley Road in Old Whittington. Foxwood Diesel is a leading UK builder and repairer of commercial diesel engines. We also distribute new and reconditioned parts, including genuine Cummins parts, for most bus and truck engines. 


The original focus of the company was to service the municipal and national bus companies, providing items such as cylinder heads, blocks and crankshafts, alongside serving many local machining companies. In recent times, the focus has expanded in order to serve the local and national market. In 2003, the company changed its name to 'Foxwood Diesel' in order to reflect its target market, after the decision was made to expand its services by building complete diesel engines for the bus, coach, construction, truck and plant industries. The company can now be said to boast one of the best equipped workshops in the local area. The workshop provides a wide range of services, many of which can be viewed here.


Our dedicated team boasts more than 70 years’ experience within the industry, reconditioning all makes of truck and PSV engines and giving them a second lease of life at our own workshop. All our work is backed by a one-year warranty. Thanks to our continuous investment in extensive workshop facilities and staff training, our clients can rely on us to minimise their down-time.


Foxwood Diesel is also a national distributor of genuine Cummins spares and engine parts. We also supply parts, consumables and new and replacement engines for Mercedes, Volvo, Perkins, DAF and all the major diesel vehicle manufacturers. We also hold large quantities of diesel engine spares and stock a wide range of reconditioned components for most bus and truck engines as well as tool kits for your vehicle and engine consumables for petrol and diesel engines.
