hi
i have come across a 58 plate seat ibiza 1.4 tdi ecomotive with a seized bottom end going reasonably cheap
i have done some research on the web and looked on the log book and i believe the engine code to be bms
after looking around this engine seems to be expensive is there anything else i could do to save this little car from the scrap pile or should i just forget about it because it would be un-economical to fix?
the car seems in really good condition otherwise
any help on this would be amazing
kind regards
ste

Probably oil pump drive chain snapped - while not common, is a regular enough occurance in Fabias around this age to raise concerns. About 70 - 80K miles by any chance.
