Default ford temperature gauge not working

Hiya,

Right today was the first time off driving my first car... (I am still learning

Paul had a go in it aswell and really ragged it abit and it seems now the temperature gauge is not working.. I have a 1993 1.1 fiesta.

Paul said I need a new sensor but how much are they?
