Your spark plugs will last 60,000 miles,no need to purchase new replacements.If you do replace,keep the ones you take out of your car,I'll be along shortly to collect! :)

When I worked for a well known spark plug manufacturer,an Italian magazine ran bog standard spark plugs to 60k miles without problems.We prayed the article never appeared in the UK as we were worried about our jobs.Your Ngk will do 100k and knowing the mileage on your car and the way you look after it,those plugs will have done very little work.Keep your plugs and send me the cash.The car will run the same and your bank balance will only have dropped by what you were going to spend anyway :D
