Right my girlfriends head gasket has gone Its a L reg 1.2 8v corsa

I have spoken to a garage and they have quoted me £145.10 all in to do it if i supply the parts but they will get the head skimmed.
Got a quote on some parts through the trade for:
Head Gasket Set
Head Bolts
Oil
Filter
Cambelt
Total: £34.37 all in.

The garage said they will supply the anti freeze.

Now is that a good price? Also going to give a mate £20 to tow the car from mine to the garage (30 miles) as it isnt worth driving it i dont think, cars in a bad way

So a grand total of:

£199.47

Am i getting ripped here? Wish i could do it myself but dont have the knowledge
