Default Head Gasket Problem on EG's??? Is this common?

I've been looking for an EG hatch for a daily driver for quite a while now and have found a couple that seem to be in mint condition, save for a blown head gasket. Is this a common problem for these cars? It seems to be common between 150K kms and 250K kms on these cars. Coincidence?
