   if your doing it yourself you will need :
   head gasket kit
   timing belt
   oil
   oil filter
   coolant
   possible head skimming if head is warped
   
   just price them up at your local parts centre will be around 50-70 pounds
   
   but if your getting a garage to do it it will cost alot more as your will pay for about 5 or 6 hours labour

   will be alot more expensive than that , head sets are around £40-50 , head skimmig is around £30-£40 , parts alone would cost over £100
