Hey guys, I'll cut to the chase. Omw to Colchester my pipe popped which started leaking coolant until I realised there's a smell and the car completely over heated. I'm genuinely heartbroken and by the looks of things head gasket and water pump is broken in the process. Is the engine salvageable? Or should I try go for another engine? I'm trying to calculate everything but I'm in a difficult position to decide because I'm not sure what else I would need ro replace in the process. I know the coil pack was damaged so that also needs replacing. The car does crank but it spitted so much water out of the exhaust and now I'm just not sure how many parts I would need to cover and the cost of everything.
 
Try and find a good 2nd hand engine,
If your handy with a socket set and spanners you could change it yourself over a weekend
