Product can only be purchased with other product

Hello, i have searched for weeks, and it may be a terminology issue (Australian) But i have a client with a auto engine business they list both engines and performance add-on's but don't sell the add-on's individually. So the ideas is that you cant buy an add-on unless you have brought an engine. Is this an option in VM or is there a way to do it? http://crateengine.com.au/joom31

Create a variant and make parent product not orderable. Like here http://demo.virtuemart.net/t-shirt-classic-blue-detail

This is if customers have to buy them as a combo at once. If you need to sell addons to customers who previously bought an engine, this would require a more complex custom solution.

Thanks Ghost but when they buy an engine , they may want 1 of 2 different water pumps plus a billet pulley kit. I thought that this may be a bit complicated for variants to handle
