Was driveshaft bent? There is nothing else to go wrong on the shaft itself and second hand would be fine. Or was it CV joint on driveshaft? They can be replaced on their own and can be bought cheaply. When I got my D2 CV joint boot was split and it looked like it has been like that for a while with dust and water getting in so I decided to replace joint as well not just the boot, It was about £20 for new aftermarket unit. But some are odd sizes or spline count and hard to get without cheap alternatives but still cheaper then the whole driveshaft.
