I have a slight inclination that it might be to do with the head gasket?

Have a look for the usual head gasket symptoms - Oil in water, white slime under oil filler cap

Just seems a bit of a co incidence that you get the gasket done then it fucks up, I'd double check it mate.

usually on the 1.4 16v's if you do a headgasket, when you remove the old inlet manifold gasket, it sticks to the manifold and is a bastard to get off, sometimes little bits of the gasket get lost in the inlet ducts and wedge in the egr valve, so it cant open and close like usual, making it cut out and run like shit. this is a big possibility
