Amazon UK seems to have them: http://www.amazon.co.uk/NGK-PFR7B-Spark-Plug/dp/B001MU5JB2

Only plugs to work with some aggressive tunes I've run recently.

I got mine from euro car parts and after reading a previous post from ROH ECHT I'm really glad I found them http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/c/Volkswagen_Golf_2.0_2006/p/car-parts/car-service-parts/regular-service/spark-plugs/?408441120&1&cea4cfea9191c29567b0bc41d00bd21e64f5e7dc&000301

Post by: ROH ECHT on August 17, 2015, 09:38:40 pm: Random misfires are most commonly attributed to first, coils...second, plugs...then finally, injectors. Unless they began showing up following a new tune. Then it is usually plugs first.
