WHy source a new engine from the 306 fund, why not break/scrap/sell the fungus and just use the 306 fund to buy a 306?

Why bother repairing an old 1.6 petrol Focus, surely for the time/effort/money you can just pickup another one???

Because I don't have enough money yet for a decent 306 plus I want to have the 306 as a project and make it how I want it before putting it on the road but managed to source a really low mileage engine for focus for £175 with new clutch with receipts to prove it, it was also local and I can swap it out in a day easily enough. I know the focus is crap but it the only thing I've got to get about in for the time being until my claim money comes through
