what ever the buyer is willing to pay is what its worth

an engine which cant be heard running and just "sat" there is not worth as much as a runnig one regardless of milage and history.

i sold a complete one with ecu's for £280 after it was heard and seen runnig and i sold one not heard runnig but with a gear box for £200

i recon more, they are better then the e36 IS engines and you dont have to dick about with manifolds and ancilaries etc.

a good runnig engine with no issues is £250 , which is the same money as a decent m20 2.5
