After buying this car and only having it a few hours, the oil pump went out and the engine threw a rod. Engine still runs, but my question is this: are there other engines I can buy to put into my S80? I can't seem to find an engine close to me without paying more than i can afford. Car is for sale locally, and I would like to know if i should just give up on the car or try to fix it?

My opinion, give it up to whoever wants to fix it
