Cheap as chips for a tenner but I wouldn't fit anything else except Magnecore KV85 leads.

I did fit KV85s... And they will probably last the life of the car... but still £70 is a lot for a set of leads. Runs perfectly now though :)

I've got the top of the range Bosch silicone leads, probably not as cheap as the magnecore, but half the price and reliable.

Personally i would never fit cheap leads to a valver, just not worth the trouble

I've got KV85's aswell..
Sadly when we had the rat problem one of the little buggers decided to eat through the king lead.. Still works though.
Smokes lots, because enough's enough already!

Far too many BX's, a bus, an ambulance a few trucks, not enough time and never enough cash...
