i would say bosch but ngk are ok aswell

[Asphalt]

My engine seems to run best with NGKs. I'm using BPR6ES (leccy dizzy & ~10:1CR).

Oh, and they come in such a prettyyy box

NGK's = Win

[taffy1967]

Yes 'NGK BPR6ES' for me and I replace mine every 12,000 miles and in almost 16 years of continued ownership they've never been a problem.

I think the packaging on the set I buy from Halfords has '710' on it?

Reminds me of a girl i knew whose car had a cap on the engine which had '710' on it...............................she was reading it upside down, it actually said 'oil' lol

Well don't worry because I'm not a blonde.

cheers guys looks like NGK ftw

[Robbie]

I use NGK Copper Core plugs. Apparently they're better for cold starting.

[liirge]

NGK or Champions, people tend to use champions because they are british so they match their British car.

Really? because the 710 joke did the rounds on the internet about 2 years ago so if you know the girl that started it all off, that's quite a claim to fame!


Anyway - on topic - I use NGK usually because they're cheap and work, but have some Bosch ones at the moment in an engine i haven't started - I will wait and see how good they are.

I've used champion in the past too, an they were just fine

thats why i put the 'lol' at the end, wasn't claiming it as my own, simply making a joke. Nevermind!

[Retro_10s]

Yep

[james962]

I've used NGK previously, but for the last service i changed to Bosch Super 4 plugs. to be honest i haven't noticed any difference between those or the NGK's on my daily so next service i shall revert back to NGK

Yes but Champion are now an American company, so not all that patriotic after all really.
