Not a practical purchase unless you can do the work yourself.

Or look at it this was, say the car is cheap $12,000, maybe? You get stiffed for $10,000 on the engine, is it now a $22,000 car? Nope, it's a $17,000 car. You just threw away $5,000.

But, buy the car for $12,000, re-seal the engine yourself, spend maybe $3,000, then you have $15,000 into a car that could fetch $17,000.
