Work out cost, work out value of both cars in working order and otherwise, then decide.

Well if there both £300 cars is it worth fixing them when the cost of repair to either will be more than it cost to buy???
£50 each off the scrapper for the 2 broken ones then buy another cheap runner!!

Putting an engine isnt an issue 
The astra doesnt need a new engine just yet anyway
