The Webra Bluehead diesels had the distinction of being the very last diesels to bear the iconic Webra name. They were produced by the Austrian spin-off Webra company which was established in Enzesfeld, Austria in 1972 as a result of Webra's desire to relocate from West Berlin and all its then-current political uncertainties.

The Webra Bluehead diesels first appeared in 1993. They were actually diesel conversions of existing glow-plug models in the Webra range as it then existed. They were offered in .09, .28 and .40 cuin. displacements, being distinguished by their blue-anodized diesel conversion heads. The smallest member of the family, the .09 model, was a plain bearing loop scavenged design featuring an iron-and-steel piston/cylinder combination, while the two larger models were both completely up-to-date Schnürle-ported ABC units with twin ball-race crankshafts. All were sold with R/C throttles. The quality of their construction was uniformly high.

These engines were very useful performers by the standards of their day and in the context of their intended purposes. However, they did not attract much sales attention, consequently being phased out fairly quickly. Examples in good condition are quite rare today.
