.....unless of course you expect to pay a skilled mechanic to work on it for £5 an hour- in which case it's worth repairing.
However that is unlikely as most decent, skilled mechanics operate an hourly rate of anywhere between £25-£50 per hour plus vat. It doesn't take a genius to work out that spending an hour nd a half on labour alone renders the machine uneconomical to repair.
