   Doesnt have a brand name, tbh you be better off going to euro car parts and buying a gasket set, youd get a quality make then like FAI or something, or go to the dealers and get O.E gaskets

   As above i would leave it and pay a little bit extra and get O.E parts that you know will fit

   I did use one of them sets for my 106 and had no problems, not bad for the price. As said above I would still recommend getting a O.E set though

   well I only used the cheap set as the car cost £100 and only kept it a few months before i got rid but I did cover about 12K after renewing the head gasket and had no problems, might just have been lucky though lol.
   
   The quality of the gasket and parts was all good a fitted perfectly i had no complaints , if you can afford to buy O.E parts do it but if your skint like I was i dont see a problem with the cheaper kit
