Default To Break Or Not To Break ?

I've got a good conditioned 1999 uk turbo 2000 that the engine has blown on and I can't decide if it will be better money wise to put another engine back in which I already have that has 60,000 miles on it and then get it back in the road or just break it all for spares ?

It's a great motor but I have another one so wouldn't be too upset to see it broken up if the money is there to do so ?

Thanks

turdo 2000 isnt really worth a lot in one piece or broken.

theres not much on it that anyone wants if you do break it anyway.

Maybe just get it back on the road then and sell it, got to be worth £1500-£2000 with new mot & tax surely ? It's got a cat 1 alarm & immobiliser with keyless entry, ss exhaust system with uneven headers and lots of other bits I can't be arsed to list lol

probably worth more in one piece, sounds a realistic value

Similar place with one of mine mate, issue is a engine rebuilt is going to cost £1500 for a decent job, unless your handy with the spanners, a donor engine is your best bet but you never really know what your buying, I put mine into storage till I decide
