Been offered a E46 318i with a blown engine.T-reg black nice wheels leather etc for £650.Is it worth that kind of money?Dont know much about them but it seems cheap to me.How much would it cost to get a second hand engine fitted.
Thanks

Why?

A T reg E46 318i will use an M43 engine which is an easy and cheap engine to source.

If the car is tidy then its well worth fitting another engine as its a £1750-2000 car depending on condition and mileage.
