I have a Xantia & this is not on your drop down list.
My Cam Belt has snapped & I don't know if it's worth getting the car repaired. What do you think?

The repair will cost around 6/700 pounds. The car is worth around 2000 pounds. The belt snapping alway's damages valves on this vehicle. I suppose if you have got the money then it's worth doing. Because you will have to pay out more for a newer car?
