I can't help you with the mechanic but can tell you that the UK price for when I a head gasket done by an independant was around 400 UKP. However this turned out badly and had to be dismantled again (cracked head not checked for) and a rather protracted and acrimonious result. In the end I towed the car with the head in the boot to the local Saab main dealer and had them put it back together again. Cost for that was another 400 quid. Looking back, i'd rather have done it myself, the gasket and head bolt set is a fraction of the overall cost. David.
