My little 2000 (77,000 miles) Punto recently went to the garage as it was overheating badly and some suspected damage had been done to head gasket.
Garage said it was more than that but didnt specify anything - just said it needs new engine.
I dont know much about this type of stuff - but is it worth getting a new engine for an 8 yr old punto or scrapping it and getting a new one. Rest of car is in decent condition and was working fine up till 2 weeks ago.
i found an engine on the web - 31,000 miles done, delivered to my door for £430 with 12 month warranty.
How much would i be looking at to get a new engine fitted?
Is this just a really bad idea in general.
any help would be appreciated!!
