Unhappy 2010 C30 needs replacement engine, which engine should I get

Hey guys, I'm new to this but needing some advice. I own a 2010 C30 1.6 diesel.

I bought it little over 6 months ago and was in fact blinded by its beauty and didn't realise how many issues I was buying it with. Absolute rookie error I know.

So after white smoke pouring out the back of the engine and the poor baby spending two weeks at a Volvo specialist it's come to light that I need a new engine.

Unfortunately I spent a lot on the car and plenty since trying to fix a problem that turns out cannot be fixed. I don't have a lot of spare change left!

I've heard through the grapevine that a ford psa engine is the same as mine and that with a little tweaking, it should go straight in. This is the cheaper option for me but I've had no clear guidance on whether it will actually work.

Does any one have any idea whether it would and how much work it would take to do it?

Thanks ☺️
