Are you sure that the head gaskets have gone??
The people that know on here say it is very unlikely the head gaskets go, usually the Oil Cooler.
Only cost you about £100 if you do it yourself :y

Are you 100% sure it's Head gasket failure?

You would REALLY have to go some, to get £1200 breaking it! (especially if engine shot)

I would fix it...
