Default O2 sensors - which ones?

Looking for some advice here - what do you recommend, I've found the following:

from: Land Rover Parts, Accessories and Information

1.

Oxygen Sensor - Front
Item: MHK100920G (Genuine Part)
$229.95

and

Oxygen Sensor - Rear
Item: MHK100930G (Genuine Part)
$214.95

or

2.

Oxygen Sensor - Front
Item: MHK100920
$69.95

and

Oxygen Sensor - Rear
Item: MHK100930
$69.95

or

3.

my mechanic has found Bosch ones he can order for $120 each front and $89 each rear (from what I remember him saying)

or

4.

other options?

The $69 AB ones are tempting!

Thanks!

Amazon has generally cheapest. Check them for NTK 25623(pre-cat) & 25624(post-cat).

Default Oxy. sensors

Some guys think that they need to put on the most expensive ones available, because, since they are so expensive, they simply MUST be better, I found and put on the cheapest ones I could find; found, electronically, that they were same as all other ones, so I installed them. I also thought that if the cheap ones don't last all that long, they are so easy to replace, that I could easily put on two or three or more pairs for the price on one set of the expensive ones. That was 80,000 miles ago, and they are still working just fine, thank you! When it comes to oxy. sensors, I am highly doubtful that expensive ones are any better than cheap ones.

They are all made by only a couple of companies, not matter what logo is on the box.

The last Bosch I bought were actually made by NTK (stamped on the sensor itself).
