Hi, I took a look at my plugs the other week - having only done 30K, and they look as worn as the set shown in your photo that have done 100K.
Is this normal, and, should I replace them?

At 30,000Kms, they should be fine...
To be honest, I didnt notice any difference when I changed my plugs and leads.
(The only reason why I changed them was I had just bought the car, and I didnt have much to go on with its service history)...
It had been serviced by dealers up until 70,000Kms, and then after that by private mechanics....
So I thought it best to replace them just in case they had never been replaced...

But as I said, I didnt notice any difference when they were changed....

Hope this helps, and welcome to the forums :)

Just bought two sets of NGK - BUR6ET spark plugs for ВЈ8.00 per set in store at Halfords BPR6ES were ВЈ5.00 per set in store, unfortunately none left / ВЈ9.00 on line.

I would run iridiums just based on the fact that changing spark plugs on these vehicles is a bit more work than a lot of other vehicles.
