Cool

Right i may arrange a group buy on these spark plugs depending on honest interest from people on here.

If I just buy 4 then I can get them for £9.35 each inc vat, which is £37.40. However if I buy a box of 20 then I can get them for £7.48 each or £29.96 for 4.

I am likely to buy 20 anyway but may be able to get them cheaper if i have to buy more ie 100 lets say. I would add £5 to cover postage and hassle for the wife going to the post office, etc.

Please let me know if you are interested. If you definately want some mail my personal email in link above.

With the help of someone else, if we can get 40 plugs or more sold then price could go down to £25 plus postage. Say £30 tops for 4 delivered. And this source will take credit card and post to you, which is less hassle for me.....erm the wife.

Not bad!

So come on we need more to benefit. These are quite expensive plugs normally, have seen prices in excess of £50 for 4. So thats 2 for the price of one

<feel like a bloody supermarket advertising on tv>

At the moment if we get 40 then they are £25 + £3 p+p 1st class £1 extra for recorded.

If you want, the new contact will take your credit card details from you and post direct to you.

Just had another email saying 4 definately 4 possibly (Scott Wallace) and 4 from Andy Poon, so thats 36.

1/2 more people to gaurantee the price.

yes they will fit a 94.. as thats what I have... 7b's are a colder plug than standard... these are a better plug for modified engines...

** Please Remember to Gap the Plugs ** 1.3mm Seems to ring a bell.. Ill have to have a look through favourites...

Now where are those metric feeler gauges

Steve... Did I mention you are fitting mine

Sorted, details tomorrow.

Cant believe how quickly we have had to operate on this. Will try and sort everyone tomorrow, but please bear with me as my Work comes 2nd, to my family, followed by my scoob. Have about £20000 to bill tomorrow, once done i will deal with the spark plugs.

Those that want them for friday should still be achievable by 1st class.

regards

steven

Before ordering I spoke to NGK UK about these plugs, they said the Uk wont be getting these but he would get the specific product code for my car : BKR6EIX.
Im getting the Bosch Coils next week so i will fit these and let U know.
