Kev, Fear not. I have the same car and have just changed mine. Take off the cover plate,10? bolts. That will reveal the 'coil packs', two in number, which are fixed over the plug by two screws. Each coil pack has a lead out of it feeding the other plug:ie coil pack sits on one plug and leads feeds the other. There are a couple of electrical connections which need to be unplugged and thats it apart from actually removing the plugs for which you will need an extension bar as they are fairly deep down. If I can do it anyone can!. This photo should make things clear.http://www.fordscorpio.co.uk/images/top%203.jpg. and this details the plugs. I used NGK.http://www.fordscorpio.co.uk/diy.htm.
