Second Hand 1.8ST Engine, Need to find where i can get a second hand 7AFE engine Options

Hi guys,

I had been losing oil recently but could not find out where it was going. There was no black/blue smoke from the exhaust, no leaks and I was only losing oil when driving on the motorway at high revs constantly(70mph).
This had been going on for about 6 months now and i kept topping oil after a long journey on the motorway.
Last week, whilst on the motorway, I realised that I'd lost some power and was finding overtaking really hard. Pulled over and in first gear, car was misfiring really badly and engine was juttering at idle.
Took of spark plugs and one of them had oil deposits on it (thus oil is entering that cylinder) and spark plug is not igniting.

Anyway, need some help now. What's my best option?
a)reconditioning the engine (which would cost me £600 plus fitting so we're looking at £1K)
b)getting a second hand engine and fitting it (prob around £600)
c)get a new car

I'm struggling to find places that do second hand celica engines. Do you guys know anyplace?and how much would it cost?

Thanks guys..any help would be appreciated greatly

I have no idea where that's at, so i'll give you a generic answer.

Junkyards.

If i knew where you were at i'd try to recommend places by name... Sorry. (i dont get out much )

But seriously, most all junkyards (that i've been to atleast) have engines redialy avalible, and you'll be needing a 7a-fe engine if it's a 1.8L.
