Default RS Turbo - Head Gasket Question

Guys,

Just spoken to Ford concerning a new Head Gasket for an Escort RS Turbo (MFi) 1989.

The price they have quoted is £16.93 + VAT for FINIS code 6918549.

Could anyone confirm that this is the correct FINIS code and whether the price sounds right? Just seems a lot cheaper than the last one I purchased!

Cheers

Was that for just the head gasket or the whole head kit?

Yeah know it sounds cheap, asked the guy what the part was described as and he said "Escort MFi Turbo Head Gasket".

Can anyone check the FINIS code?
