If the car is perfect save for the engine then not a bad deal provided that cost and associated costs are discounted from the purchase price

Call Gazzuzz, beg/plead/cry/whine to let you “borrow” a stall for weekends only. Two weekends and you and a mate can sort this out.

It’s a Corolla.

For the engine to have thrown a rod, they were using wrong engine oil, and changing at wrong intervals, also there might have been a history of tap water. To eliminate all doubts, we start from scratch.
