car is worth about €2000-€2500 I assume, so if it was me I'd check out the breakers for a 2nd hand door, could work out cheaper. I wouldn't buy a car needing repair as there are more out there nice and clean for the same money.

Be weary of your estimate. 250 could be way off. Get a quote for a door from a scrap yard (bear in mind you'll have to rewire the electrics and change the locks over) and get a quote for repair. Then weigh up the options against what you might sell it for!

I think 2500 is a bit optimistic. 2000 would be more the money.
