Thats very cheap indeed. One thing to check is that they are not for the earlier 'BOA' engine as fitted to the Granada Scorpio Cosworth's. I have done that before & the E-Bay seller would not except returns  Undecided. The cheapest i have paid is £46 for a set of NGK's  Roll Eyes

There are errors in this list, particularly in the 24V section. Some of them are copper tip (the champion one at least). The Champion RC8PYP is the correct.

Has anyone tried NGK Iridium plugs BKR6EIX-11 for the 24v?
They seem to be about the same price as Platinum PFR6B-11
Opinions please
